Most families are upset by a serial killer among their children. The Hunters are proud of it.
Lily McCallum believes she has found peace, despite her private torments. She has a home in the remote desert, and funding for her own private lab where she can study her own obsessions - DNA - are serial killers born or made? She even has a friend - Betty Harris, a genealogist who also works - as does Lily - for the Hunter family. Then Martin Hunter Two, the family patriarch, dies and the extended family gathers on the ranch. Together Betty and Lily discover a horrifying family secret. But can they get anyone to listen to them before the Hunters stop them - for good.
