Now, I love a traditional serial killer thriller, but I’m even more excited by stories of this genre that differentiate themselves with unique plot structures and premises. Right from the outset, THE BUTTERFLY GARDEN differentiates itself from its "serial killer thriller" peers with its unique premise: a serial killer has been captured, and it’s now up to the FBI to piece together what happened through an interview with one of the killer's survivors. But the more she shares, the more the agents have to wonder what she’s still hiding… But the girl, known only as Maya, proves to be a puzzle herself.Īs her story twists and turns, slowly shedding light on life in the Butterfly Garden, Maya reveals old grudges, new saviors, and horrific tales of a man who’d go to any length to hold beauty captive. FBI agents Victor Hanoverian and Brandon Eddison are tasked with piecing together one of the most stomach-churning cases of their careers. When the garden is discovered, a survivor is brought in for questioning. Overseeing it all is the Gardener, a brutal, twisted man obsessed with capturing and preserving his lovely specimens. In this garden grow luscious flowers, shady trees…and a collection of precious “butterflies”-young women who have been kidnapped and intricately tattooed to resemble their namesakes. Near an isolated mansion lies a beautiful garden. Come for this book’s stunning cover, stay for the brutal, inventive crimes at its core with the final installment in this trilogy releasing in May 2018, now is the perfect time to enter Hutchison’s dark and twisted world.
