Brother Blood lives in a place where shadows come out after the sun goes down, and they don't come out to play.

As Brother Blood sat at his window looking down on the streets below, he couldn't help but wonder, is there any justice?

Over the last few years, I have done an extensive amount of research into many serial killers. A lot of them have shared common traits, such as childhood abuse, bed-wetting, starting fires, and animal cruelty. Then again, some of them have not shared any common traits at all, yet have committed the same type of heinous crimes.
