Ugh! A trifecta: serial killer Edward Shank (the butcher) who's revealed in the 1st chapter, his grandson Matt (chef extraordinaire) , Matt's girlfriend Samantha (journalist writing a book on the butcher) Ed the killer also happens to be retired chief of police & really likes raping & killing young girls. His grandson Matt is a successful chef who's an asshole to Sam & their friends & finds out his grandfather is a serial killer & does nothing about it. Sam who's writing a book about the serial killer who's responsible for her mother's death and let's Matt treat her like shit. Most of the characters were unlikable and the story line was a little farfetched with "surprises" sprinkled in. Not worth the read
