Charlie is in love with Miranda, a bright student who lives with a terrible secret. He comes into money and buys Adam, one of the first synthetic humans. He and Miranda design Adam's personality. It isn't long before a love triangle soon forms, and these three beings confront a profound moral dilemma. / Londres, años ochenta del siglo pasado. Pero un Londres distópico y alternativo, en el que la historia ha seguido algunos senderos diferentes. Por ejemplo, el científico Alan Turing no se ha suicidado, sino que sigue vivo y dedicado al desarrollo de la inteligencia artificial. Y ha conseguido crear los primeros seres humanos sintéticos, a los que da el nombre –según su sexo– de Adán y Eva. Charlie compra uno de esos Adanes y, con ayuda de Miranda, su amante, lo programa a su gusto. Pero Miranda oculta un terrible secreto, y ese ser sintético prácticamente perfecto, sin las fisuras pero también sin los matices morales de los verdaderos humanos, acabará descubriéndolo. Y así, la peculiar relación entre Charlie, Miranda y Adán derivará en una creciente tensión y arrastrará al lector a plantearse dilemas morales tan incómodos como necesarios.
