Laws of Inheritance

In The Laws of Inheritance, the second thriller from Matthew Cole Levine, social commentary and body horror create a fiery blend tailor-made for an election year.Darren Trevor is only five days away from his twenty-fifth birthday when he feels that something is wrong. Something in his body. Something unnatural. The weird thing is, his father, Bryan Trevor, also died from a mysterious illness on the day he turned twenty-five. Could it have anything to do with the years that Bryan spent in the military after the Gulf War-years unaccounted for, with strange and lasting consequences? With American society coming to a boil as the next election looms, Darren ventures onto the streets of Baltimore to uncover a shocking conspiracy. He'll soon realize firsthand the traumatic legacies passed down from one generation to another-sins of the fathers inherited by their sons, political evils that live and breathe as the world struggles to forget. The clock is ticking as Darren tries to discover what's happening to him-and what happened to his father-before it's too late.
