    Author

    Jamie Campbell

    Jamie was born into a big, crazy family of 6 children. Being the youngest, she always got away with anything and would never shut up. Constantly letting her imagination run wild, her teachers were often frustrated when her 'What I did on the weekend' stories contained bunyips and princesses.Growing up, Jamie did the sensible things and obtained a Bachelor of Business degree from Southern Cross University and worked hard to gain her membership with the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Australia.Yet nothing compared to writing. Quiting the rat race to spend quality time with her laptop named Lily, Jamie has written several novels and screenplays. Spanning a number of genres and mediums, Jamie writes whatever inspires her from ghost stories to teenage love stories to tantalising murder mysteries. Nothing is off limits.A self-confessed television addict, dog lover, Taylor Swift fan, and ghost hunter, Jamie loves nothing more than the thrill of sharing her stories.

      Excerpt fromClone Legislation, 2056 Edition

      Chapter 1: Wren

      The boy was going to kill me.

      Rocky, come on. I’m hungry but I’m not going to eat that, I said, with a few giggles that refused to be suppressed. He was holding up a suspect piece of brown goo. It could have been anything from mud to something much, much worse.

      Rocky dangled it over his mouth. I’m sure it tastes better than it looks.

      I’ll go on a raid, try to get some real food from a house in the Hills.

      It’s too dangerous.

      Yes, it was. But that had never stopped me before. When there was no food left in the village and the trash cans in the city had been emptied, we had little other choice.

      Eating brown goo was not a good option. Still, I’d eaten worst. Every Defective Clone had. But that didn’t mean I would let Rocky poison himself.

      I stood, trying to get purchase with my limp foot. I stomped it on the ground a few times, trying to at least get some feeling back in it. I hated my defective foot, but I still needed it in order to walk.

      Rocky pushed up to a standing position. If you’re going to risk being caught, then I’m going with you.

      No you’re—

      My words remained stuck in my throat as someone shrieked, Troopers! Everyone in the Defectives’ village sprung to life as we ran.

      Running for me wasn’t an entirely good option. With my gimp foot, I was unlikely to be able to outrun a trooper. They had been trained and were in peak physical shape, I was barely surviving. I needed to hide.

      Rocky was by my side as we frantically searched for a hiding place. Unfortunately, the alleyway was our only real option. We dived into the damp and slimy place, the brown goo now forgotten as it fell to the ground.

      We squished ourselves against the wall, hoping to be as small and invisible as possible. I could hear Rocky’s sharp breaths as he gasped for air while the pounding of my heartbeats echoed in my head.

      The troopers were searching through the village. It was something they did regularly, but lately it had been upgraded to often. Nearly every day they did a walk-through as a minimum.

      They were searching for me.

      For my organs.

      My Maker had called me in to Fulfil My Purpose. I was to lay down my life so she could cut me to pieces and freeze whatever organs she didn’t need at the moment.

      I didn’t want her to have any part of me. From the soles of my feet to the tip of my head, I hated her. For creating
