Many thanks to NetGalley, Grand Central Publishing and Karen Dietrich for the opportunity to read and review this dark thriller. 4.5 stars!
A serial killer walked into a mall and killed 11 people in St Augustine, FL, and now sits on death row. His daughter, whom he has never met, is a teenager now obsessed with death and trying to understand why her father did what he did. Her mother encourages her to go to a support group for kids with incarcerated parents where she meets Clarisse, daughter of another murderer. They instantly have a connection and spent the summer together talking about testing each other to see if they could be like their fathers.
This is both a coming of age story as well as exploring the topic of nature vs nurture. The writing is spot on, even when it is dark enough to make you shiver.
