1981, Dahlia. For seventeen years, brothers Luke and Kurt Morrow have struggled to accept a stark reality: unlike other normal household traditions, their own relies on brutality and an insatiable urge to seek and destroy.
The problem is, neither Luke nor Kurt share the same thirst for bloodshed as their homicidal family, and perhaps this is what has always made them the black sheep of their tight-knit, horrific little unit -- especially in the eyes of their eldest brethren, Raymond "Rebel" Morrow.
Until one day, their other brother, Michael, admits a shocking secret. He's grown tired of Momma, Rebel, and Daddy's sadistic ways, and worst of all, he's fallen in love. Desperately. Painfully. Tragically.
And with the same girl Luke and Kurt have secretly fawned over for years.
Worst of all, Rebel knows, and like any protective relative, he has a license to kill. Not out of hate, and certainly not out of love, but out of loyalty, making the boys realise one distinct truth amongst a pack of lies:
No matter how long a river may run, blood will always remain thicker than water, and if they want an escape from this life, they'll have to shed their own just to get it.
