Are murderers and rapists born, or are they created? The book answers this question in a manner that makes you wonder whether in some way, through our actions and words, do we make monsters out of people who might have turned out normal, and not psychopaths? The story revolves around a medley of gray characters, none of whom are likeable, neither do you find yourself rooting for any, while taking us back and forth in time, and keeps us intrigued and guessing who’s the culprit, and who is the real victim?
