What if you discovered your father had killed your mother?

When Mia’s father commits suicide, it is the conclusion of a killing spree which ended the lives of ten young women. His death marks a new beginning for eight-year-old Mia. She is adopted by the well-to-do Lewis family and grows up surrounded by love and security.

Fifteen years later, a visit from the police shatters their world. More of her father’s victims have been found, amongst them the body of Mia’s mother. The woman Mia thought had abandoned her had been killed by the man she loved and trusted.

As the fragile foundations of her life crumble around her, Mia begins to discover the painful reality of her childhood. Is she the product of the family who nurtured her, or of the blood-soaked genes she carries?

Terrible reader, terrible production!

The reader ruined what could have been a decent story. Awful! Everything runs together. There aren’t the natural cadence of speech Just a run on, little expression reader.

Unfinished

I felt unsettled in the end that she was not held accountable for what she did. The reader was very monotone and read very fast. In some places hard to understand the story. It just blended in together and put me to sleep. All in all never understood if Eddie or Nan or both was actually doing the killing.
