You can’t change your DNA…even when it says you’re a murderer.
When Davy tests positive for Homicidal Tendency Syndrome, aka “the kill gene,” she loses everything. Once the perfect high school senior, she is uninvited from her prep school and abandoned by her friends and boyfriend. Even her parents are now afraid of her—although she’s never hurt a fly. Davy doesn’t feel any differently, but genes don’t lie. One day she will kill someone.
Without any say in the matter, Davy is thrown into a special class for HTS carriers. She has no doubt the predictions are right about them, especially Sean, who already bears the “H” tattoo as proof of his violence. Yet when the world turns on the carriers, Sean is the only one she can trust. Maybe he’s not as dangerous as he seems. Or maybe Davy is just as deadly.

Why Am I Waiting?
The concept of this book sounds fabulous. As bizarre as it sounds I can picture someone being ostracized for having the wrong genes. I'm also really curious what event caused the Government to start testing for a kill gene. I bet the propaganda machine was working overtime when they approved that bill. On a purely superficial side look at that cover! I love that hair!!

Since
I'm curious, Have you heard of Uninvited before?
What do you think of
the cover?
If HTS really existed would you want
to know if you were a carrier of the gene?
