This is a well-crafted short story. It might be a little confusing to a reader who has not read H.P. Lovecraft's “A Shadow over Innsmouth.” If the reader has, then this short story fits nicely into the Lovecraft mythos. Basically, the main character purchases a genetic test and finds that 10% of her genetic material cannot be identified....and, then, there is that rejected doctoral dissertation from that odd Ph.D. candidate at Miskatonic University.
