I bought the DNA kit to trace my grandfather's village. Two matches came back. One of them carried a surname I had only ever heard in my own jealous nightmares.
I gave my little sister a DNA kit as a gag gift. The results unstitched thirty years of our family in a single afternoon.
She met me at the door with happy tears and a secret she thought would save us. She didn't know the one fact that made her whole story impossible.
She held up the test like a winning lottery ticket. I should have been thrilled. Instead I sat very still, counting backward through a calendar that didn't add up.
I knew one strange fact about the man I suspected. So I sent my spit to a lab and let the math decide whether I was paranoid or right.
