The Clone Codes by Patricia, Fredrick and John McKissack

This book is written by a husband/wife/son team!  Patricia is an award winning young adult author of mostly non-fiction titles, such as Sojourner Truth: Ain't I A Woman.  She is joined by her husband and son in order to produce this fiction work.  They have taken the general idea of slavery and applied it to a fictitious future (2170) of clones and cyborgs.  The Clone Codes state the rules that apply to the clones and cyborgs.  It follows closely the rules of slavery in America in the 1800s.  It is a fast moving story that throws in surprises and interesting ideas of how technology will be in the future.
