People will do absolutley anything for  youth. . .if they can risk horrible infections with  face-lifts, and worse things from liposuction, then  they can accept the risk of a little plastic."  Ex Yale pre-med Jamie Angelo is part artist and  part alchemist. His work is a modern miracle of  computer imaging and scientific engineering. A  technique light-years beyond medicine. A creation so  revolutionary the world must never know. He can  reimagine and reinvent you as he transforms your  old, unlovley flesh into a masterpiece of ageless  beauty. He is not God. But he is close. To  ambitious downtown performance artist Jaishree  Manglai--about to become his most radical experiment--Jamie  is the ultimate fantasy. . .a dark erotic  obsession that knows no bounds. . .a master illusionist  who turns every woman's shattered hope for the few  who can choose to wear beauty's monstrous-and  deadly-face. . .
