Mommy Darkest: Sante and Kenny Kimes, Part 1

A wise man once said, “A boy’s best friend is his mother.” Oh,
wait. That was actually Norman Bates, wasn’t it? Sorry. But a
mother’s love IS one of the most powerful forces on earth. At its
best, it’s unconditional, selfless, kind, protective. Willing to
throw itself between its young and whatever danger threatens them.
At its worst, well…you’re about to find out. This is the story of
what happens when a mother decides that instead of nurturing her
young, she’ll make him a tool instead…and when the mother in
question is an unstoppable, unmerciless force of greed. And what
happens when a boy’s love for his mother turns from tender to
toxic, from admiring to obsessive, from protective to partner in
crime.
