In Disguise: Serial Wife Emma Raine

In nature, there’s a phenomenon called disruptive coloration. It’s
when an animal or insect is multicolored to match its
environment—thereby camouflaging itself. It’s especially useful, as
I’m sure you can imagine, for predators. For example, the orange
and black on a tiger allows it to blend in with the scenery and lie
in wait for prey. Humans haven’t evolved this nifty little trick,
but some of us have mastered something pretty similar. If you’re a
predatory human, you might decide to adopt a disguise to put
potential victims at ease. A preacher’s wife, for example. Or a
prominent, well dressed business owner. You might develop your
people skills, so that anybody who visits your home will feel like
royalty. And all the while, behind your smiling eyes, the predator
is waiting to pounce.
