Double Take

We’ve all dreamed about having a twin; physically identical in every way so that no one could tell you apart. My life has been exactly this; I am John Stone, the geeky MIT-grad now military intelligence officer (the "brain") and my identical twin brother Joe, who boasts a 25-year U.S. Special Forces career (the "brawn"). Our co-development of a TOP-SECRET DoD remote sensing technology unexpectedly catapulted us into a world in which we must secretly swap identities, requiring every bit of our ingenuity and training, to stay one step ahead of our captors just to stay alive. This is my story.
