We meet his mother, Lavender, a seventeen-year-old girl pushed to desperation Hazel, twin sister to Ansel’s wife, inseparable since birth, forced to watch helplessly as her sister’s relationship threatens to devour them all and finally, Saffy, the homicide detective hot on his trail, who has devoted herself to bringing bad men to justice but struggles to see her own life clearly. Through a kaleidoscope of women-a mother, a sister, a homicide detective-we learn the story of Ansel’s life. He hoped it wouldn’t end like this, not for him. But Ansel doesn’t want to die he wants to be celebrated, understood. He knows what he’s done, and now awaits execution, the same chilling fate he forced on those girls, years ago. Ansel Packer is scheduled to die in twelve hours.
