Story

The story

Lily is the only ordinary member of a family of killers: her father is a serial killer, her mother a psychopath, her brother a sociopath. She has watched her father slit a man's throat and heard a woman's screams fade behind a closed door, and she knows that no one who enters their house ever comes out alive.

Bullied every day at school, Lily begs her tormentors not to come to her home, but they only laugh and promise to see what kind of family raised a bug like her. When her mother finds the bruises and scars on Lily's body, her smile deepens, and Lily knows what her mother does when she is angry.

Lily loves her family, yet their love leaves her cold with fear.

Opening excerpt

I was being bullied.

My bullies threatened to come to my house.

I begged them not to.

Because they didn't know that I am the only normal person in my family.

My father is a serial killer.

My mother is a psychopath.

My brother is a sociopath.

And me? I'm just a delicate, innocent little flower.

I returned home with a heavy heart.
