About this listen
If you could test your son for a gene that predicts violence, would you do it? From the author of Curfew comes a suspenseful, heart-wrenching novel about the consequences of your answer.
Antonia and Bea are sisters, and doting mothers to their sons. But that is where their similarities end.
Antonia had her son tested to make sure he didn’t possess the "violent" M gene.
Bea refuses to let her son take the test. She believes his life should not be determined by a positive or negative result.
These women will go to any length to protect their sons.
But one of them is hiding a monster.
And there will be fatal consequences for everybody....

“Nature, nurture, and parenting styles go to war in Jayne Cowie’s tense thriller with a twist…the kind of book that has something to say, and says it well.”—Christina Dalcher, author of Vox
“Weaving controversial takes such as men’s rights with the impact of eugenics on society and the lengths a mother will go to protect her child, this is a twisty page-turner..."—Booklist
“What a thought provoking read! So timely, so relevant and so remarkably written, it’s going to live with me for some time to come."—John Marrs, bestselling author of The Passengers
