All families need a helping hand sometimes - even if it means mass murder
It had been a bad day for Charles Moon. Suffering two events that will change him and his family forever.
But is there a deeper connection to the events, and who is to blame? His mother, for one. Except making plans for her alone won't solve the fundamental problem of his family. He needs to go further. Much further.
Organising a weekend gathering at the family home in the sleepy village of Hoake, he gets his exclusive roll call: his mother's family. Saving future generations from them he considers an act of love, a selfless mission of mercy.
As the fateful weekend progresses, Charles seems determined to carry out the terrible task he has set himself. But even the most meticulous preparations can't anticipate the arrival of an outsider or a mother's shocking announcement.
Will the weekend unravel further for Charles and frustrate his family planning? And does he have it in him to see it through?
This is not revenge, except perhaps against nature itself.
