A retreat built around a shared family legacy turns into a murder mystery

Nicola Fischer arrives at the Death Row Club carrying the public fallout of her father’s arrest and the silence of a former friend. The retreat brings together adult children of serial killers, but its promise of connection is unsettled when a newcomer disappears and a member is found dead. With suspicion falling on Nicola, the setup links a closed-circle crime story to questions of inherited identity, stigma, and how much a person can be defined by a parent’s actions. The description also places true-crime television in the background, shaping the scrutiny around Nicola and the club.

Book overview

A dark, dazzlingly original psychological thriller about a woman invited to an annual weekend getaway for the adult children of serial killers...but when one of the participants ends up dead, they begin to wonder if someone among them might be carrying on the family traditions.

When Nicola Fischer's father is arrested for the murder of five women--including her best friend--the entire world watches it unfold on To Catch a Killer, the hit true crime TV show hosted by Greer Woods. Overnight, Nicola becomes a pariah: fired from her job, drowning in debt, and shunned by everyone she knows. And to make matters worse, Greer--once a budding friend and fellow child of a serial killer--hasn't returned a single call since the show aired.

Then comes an unexpected invitation to the Death Row Club, a secret retreat for the adult children of serial killers--founded by none other than Greer herself. Desperate for answers and human connection, Nicola agrees to go. At first, it seems like exactly what she needs. The club members are strange but welcoming, and Greer seems eager to mend their fractured friendship.

But when a mysterious girl arrives, claiming her father is a killer too, the club's fragile peace is shattered, unraveling the buried secrets at its core. By morning, the girl has vanished. By afternoon, one of the club members is dead.

Now everyone is watching Nicola. After all, she's the daughter of a monster. And monsters raise monsters...don't they?
