(6,11) Once in a generation all the DNA traits align in one person to create the perfect swimmer. A long lean body frame, flexibility, incredible reaction time and perhaps most important the inner drive to be the best no matter what the personal cost. Clayton won the genetic lottery, he had all the traits to be the greatest swimmer in a generation plus the down home American good looks and friendly disposition guaranteed to make him a media darling. Clayton also lived in Marfa, Texas and never saw a body of water larger than a puddle caused by a West Texas thunderstorm until the day he died.
Grace was born to be an actress, Definite A-list potential from her early teens but she was born in Rwanda where these gifts did nothing but make her life a living hell.

(To be continued as I have time to work on this......)
