" Commended for the 2006 Canadian Children s Book Centre Our Choice Selection" The year is 2014. Dylan Gibson is 16 and knows there is something unusual about him, but he doesn t know what - aside from his fascination for things like insects, opera, old Japanese sci-fi movies, playing the didgeridoo, and the Loch Ness monster. After being dumped by his girlfriend, Caroline, who thinks he s too strange, Dylan meets Robyn, who s something of an outcast herself. Dylan s father works for a big drug company, and his mom, a former geneticist, dropped out of research after a mysterious event. When Dylan discovers a mysterious photograph of himself at a younger age, he starts to suspect that there may be more to his identity crisis than he realized. With Robyn s help, he begins to investigate the mystery that is his own life."
