Description

"The teenage children of a convicted serial killer try to prove his innocence when a true-crime podcast reinvigorates interest in the case. Their fate intersects with cults, killers, cops, and convicts on the backroads of West Virginia in one brutal, unforgettable crash"--
In a poor West Virginia town decimated by the opioid epidemic, teenagers Henry and Jane have it worse than most. Their father is Hollis Lusher, a convicted serial killer known as "the Blind Spot Slasher." The siblings maintain their father's innocence, but now a popular true-crime podcast is coming to town, and their presence turns all eyes to the Blind Spot Slasher's case... and Henry and Jane. Meanwhile Lieutenant Elena Garcia is put on the case of a missing girl, and realizes there may be other mysteries buried in the flood of opioid-related crimes. Henry's new friend, Otis, makes it his mission to help Henry and Jane find the real killer. -- adapted from jacket
