Dark Origins

To survive his circumstances—and a serial killer—Vander must make a monster of himself.

Growing up in abject poverty, Vander Masozi faces dangers from all sides: his abusive father, roaming street gangs, predatory police officers, and the premonitions that are becoming more horrifying by the day. He is destined for a short, brutal life. That is, until Alexander Dayton offers him an opportunity to live a more extraordinary one.

Alexander is a wealthy philanthropist, but his intentions are not as pure as Vander—and the less fortunate of Cape Town—believe. He has a connection to a serial killer who also has a vested interest in his success. When it comes to Vander, Alexander must decide whether to put him on a pedestal or leave him in the dirt where he found him.

Can Vander survive unleashing the power growing inside him to save himself from certain destruction?
