It seemed like the whole world was giving her signs and she refused to take them as real. She just wanted to be able to carry on with her life, to make sure nothing as cruel took place in the past and live her stupid teenage dream. But instead of that, every time she closed her eyes, she saw Rosaline from that picture. Young, beautiful, smiling. With long red wavy hair and red lipstick, with a handsome brunette next to her. She saw her in those leather tight-fitting overalls, leather jacket and glans. She saw her holding an axe, a knife, a gun or a machete. She saw her husband in his white long-sleeved shirt, covered in blood stains. She saw a body, hundreds of bodies, a whole sea of them and the couple standing right above it, like the king and his queen."

After ditching her toxic friends, 17 year old Zoella comes back to school to a new rumour going around - her grandparents are said to be serial killers. She delves deep into the past of her ancestors along with her cousins. They try their best to be cautious and not get into trouble, but there's someone already lurking on them.

She encounters complex people along the way, one of them quickly and unexpectadly becoming special to her. Emotions have never been her strong point, she usually just ran away from them. This time, however, there is no escape route and she must face them in order to find out the truth about her family, and about who she really is.
