The law hates him. Criminals fear him. Someone wants to be him.
Three-quarters of humanity have evolved into superpowered beings bound by a genetic killing barrier. They are the Dominants-incapable of murder.
The rest are Recessives: ordinary, unprotected, and fully capable of killing. Gabriel is one of them.
Fresh out of prison after serving seven years for murder, all Gabriel wants is to go home, reunite with his family, and leave violence behind. But when a serial killer begins terrorizing the city, his own sister calls him a psycho, and a stalker known only as R escalates their twisted game from the shadows, Gabriel realizes something far worse than being hunted:
Someone wants him to keep killing.
Forced back into the role everyone despises-an executioner-Gabriel must decide whether to abandon the one skill he was born for or embrace it on his own terms. As he tries to rebuild his life among the capital's elite-college halls, glittering social circles, heirs of power-he's drawn to a woman who hides more than she reveals, and to a truth more dangerous than any crime:
Monsters don't always look like criminals.
And criminals don't always look like monsters.
As the line between justice and cruelty blurs, Gabriel faces a choice he can't escape:
Cling to his humanity and be destroyed by the monsters around him-or fight back and become one himself.
A man trained to kill, trying desperately to live.
He survived prison. He survived missions. Living might be harder.
A story about power, guilt, and the fragile connections that hold a broken man together-or tear him apart.
