The Unblemished by Williams
Interweaves the stories of a serial killer who believes he is the rightful son and heir to an ancient dynasty of flesh-eating monsters, and a mother determined to protect her only daughter from the stuff of nightmares. The fate of each of them and the survival of the entire human race depends on one man who possesses the ancient wisdom.

Williams may be in the process of developing a new genre -- M John Harrison
