Lynn Carlyle, a 24‑year‑old mortician, once did makeup for Julian Vickers, the late lover of wealthy heir Damon Ashford. Trapped as a stand‑in for Julian for three years, Lynn lives in Julian’s apartment yet is never allowed through the Ashford estate gate. To afford dialysis treatment for his sick younger brother Joey, he signs a test‑subject contract and unexpectedly becomes pregnant with twins whose genetic material belongs to Damon.
Lynn uncovers cruel secrets: Julian did not die of sudden cardiac arrest. He was a victim of his power‑hungry uncle Raymond’s illegal embryo‑harvesting project. Many young men suffered the same fate. Using his mortuary skills, Lynn reads hidden clues left on corpses, gathers evidence, and fights to expose the conspiracy. Gradually, Damon learns the terrible truth behind Julian’s death. Together they seek justice, rescue the surviving child Toby, protect Lynn’s unborn babies, and hold the villain Raymond accountable for his crimes.
