The series begins with Sarah Manning, a con artist by
trade, witnessing the suicide of a woman, Beth Childs, who appears to be her doppelgänger. Sarah takes on Beth's identity and occupation as
a police detective after Beth's death. During the first season, Sarah discovers
that she is a clone, that she has many 'sister' clones spread throughout North
America and Europe, and that someone is plotting to kill them and her.
Alongside her foster brother, Felix Dawkins, and two of her fellow clones,
Alison Hendrix and Cosima Niehaus, Sarah discovers the origin of the clones: a
scientific movement called Neolution. The movement believes that human beings
can use scientific knowledge to direct their evolution as a species. The
Neolutionists thus advocate eugenics. The movement has an
institutional base within the large, influential, and wealthy biotech corporation, the Dyad Institute. The Dyad
Institute conducts basic research, lobbies political institutions, and promotes
its eugenics program, aided by the clone Rachel Duncan. But it also seeks to
profit from the technology the clones embody. It has thus placed
"monitors" into the clones' personal lives, allegedly to study them
scientifically but also to keep them under surveillance. Sarah eventually
discovers that she's also wanted by the police and by a secret religious group,
the Proletheans. A faction of the Proletheans carries out the clone
assassinations. They use a clone, Helena, to kill the other clones. Yet Sarah
and Helena share a surrogate birth mother and are twins both genetically and
with respect to their early maternal environment. The Proletheans assassinate
clones because they believe them to be abominations. Eventually,
the Dyad Institute and the Proletheans discover Kira, Sarah's daughter. Kira's
importance issues from the fact that she is the only-known biological offspring
of a clone, all other clones being sterile by design. The plot lines of the
series revolve around Sarah and Kira's efforts to avoid capture by the clearly
sinister Neolutionists and Proletheans as well as around the efforts made by
each clone to give sense to her life and origin. The attempt to control the
creation of human life provides the key or dominant theme which drives the
various story lines. A second key theme forms around the intrigues made by the
Dyad Group and the Proletheans along with the earlier intrigues made by the
authors of Project Leda (see the Greek myth Leda and the Swan) and Mrs. S., Sarah’s foster mother, and her
political network. Both themes intersect in the effort to control the creation
of human life. Sarah, who matures because of her struggles, defends the bond
which exists between parent and child against the Neolutionists and
Proletheans.
