Description

Seventeen-year-olds Lizzie, Ella, and Betsey Best have lived their entire lives as identical triplets, only to discover they are actually clones created from their surrogate mother's DNA. The sisters have been hiding their true existence by taking turns living as their mother's single daughter, Elizabeth, while avoiding detection by a government agency that would expose them. When their individual abilities emerge and a romantic relationship develops, the careful arrangement they have maintained begins to unravel, forcing them to confront what their existence means for their family.
