Seventeen-year-old Gabe Landis has issues. Anger issues, due to severe trauma. If he doesn't address his ever-present anger, he'll explode. No orthodox methods help him. The only way he gets true peace is when he takes a life. Temporary peace, that is.
Yvonne Landis, his mother, has issues, too. Not only does she suffer from schizophrenia, but she's also a fugitive. She was held at a mental institution to stand trial for her husband's murder.
Gabe killed his father, not Yvonne. But she feels so responsible for what he has become that she can't turn him in despite having unearthed proof he's the real killer. Instead, she devotes her life to help him deal with his issues. That means she must find someone for him to kill.
This novel was exciting and fast-paced. I can hardly wait until book 3 is out! This novel was so good I finished it in 1 sitting! There wasn’t a dull moment. For readers who enjoy psychological drama, this series is worth reading.
