A Big Easy policewoman tracks a serial killer determined to root out
evil genetics by killing off a line of men in this psychological
thriller. Work is a welcome refuge for New Orleans homicide detective
Evangeline Theroux. Feeling suffocated by her new baby, in whose eyes
she sees only her dead husband, she throws herself into a high-profile
murder case. Reclusive writer Lena Saunders offers Evangeline a
provocative theory about the crime: it is the work of a lunatic
vigilante. Lena spins the sordid story of Ruth and Rebecca Lemay,
whose mother brutally murdered her male children in an insane effort
to root out an “evil” gene. The girls survived and grew to
adulthood—but one is carrying on her mother’s grisly work. When
the case takes a terrifyingly personal turn, Evangeline’s whole life
will depend on a crucial, impossible choice: the lesser of two evils.
