What if the worst thing inside you is inherited?
Gemma Lawson has spent twenty years building the perfect life — a successful business, a loving husband, and a future she desperately wants to protect. But behind her polished world lies a secret dark enough to destroy everything: her mother is one of Britain’s most notorious female killers.
Every month, Gemma visits the maximum-security prison where her mother remains locked away for murdering three men.
Her husband knows nothing.
But secrets don’t stay buried forever.
When anonymous texts begin poisoning her marriage and a dangerous inmate escapes custody, Gemma is pulled back into the violent shadows of her past. As paranoia grows and trust begins to fracture, she’s forced to confront the terrifying question she’s spent her whole life avoiding:
Is evil inherited… or chosen?
