Christine Nilsson and her husband Marcus desperately want a baby but cannot conceive. Finally, they decide to use a donor. 

Christine is pregnant after a few months, and the two are ecstatic about becoming parents.

Shockingly, the man bears a powerful resemblance to her donor.

Could he also be a serial killer? 

Christine cannot get past the idea that her child’s biological father could be a serial killer. 

She immediately begins to delve into who this man is.

She seeks out studies involving genetics and what the experts think in determining whether genes can predispose traits such as violence.

Christine’s marriage suffers due to her obsession with finding out all she can about the biological father of their child. But she’s come too far to stop now. 

She has to know.

Is her donor also a murderer?

I read this book in just two days. I quickly became immersed in this story and all its possibilities. As soon as I learned a little bit of the puzzle, I was rushing ahead to find out more.

Lisa Scottoline is a master at crafting thrillers that keep you reading. This one did not disappoint.
