Annotation: Emerson is a victim of a cruel experiment. In the process, she has lost her family, friends, and identity.
Emerson
(she goes by Em) Watts’ life will never be the same. Ever since the mad
scientists at Stark Enterprises removed Emerson’s brain and
transplanted it into the body of teen fashion model Nikki Howard after a
tragic accident, everything she has ever known has suddenly been
transformed, besides her face. Em is trying to become adjusted to her
new jet-setting lifestyle in order to avoid the wrath of Stark
Enterprises, which has threatened to harm her real family if she tells
the truth, but it’s getting kind of hard looking into the mirror and
seeing a different appearance in its reflection. So when Nikki’s brother
arrives in Manhattan and asks Em to help him search for their missing
mother, Em is unsure if she can continue with this charade. Does Em have
the courage to expose Stark Enterprises?
