Sixteen-year-old Paige Austin has always known she is different. Brilliant, and wary of her father’s violent temper, she learns the truth about her conception and tracks down the sperm donor her mother chose: Asher Salzman, a geneticist driven by his own troubled childhood to study whether science can alter violent traits. Their meeting draws two households into a tangle of old secrets.
Sharp, funny, and unsettling, Heredity is a novel about nature, nurture, and the resilience that helps families survive.
