What if you learned your father wasn't who you thought he was? What if you learned you carried secrets deep within your blood?

But nothing can prepare Lily for her newest patient.Client 46874-A is nameless, and insists that he is not human. He tells Lily that he was not born, but created over two hundred years ago, and that he wants Lily to know what he is. As she listens to this man describe the twisted crime he's committed, she can't shake the feeling that he's come for her—especially once he reveals that he knew her mother.Lily Dominick was only six years old when her mother was violently murdered while Lily sat unscathed in the next room of their cabin. Investigators assumed it was a bear attack, but she has never been sure about what really happened that day. Now, this madman—this monster—may have the answers she's been searching for.When he suddenly escapes from the hospital and kills Lily's boss, she does the unthinkable.
