Police detective Larry Tosi stayed up nights watching a video of the grisly crime scene where Karen Gregory was raped and killed to find that one telltale clue that would lead him to her killer--until slowly, and with growing horror, Tosi realized that the maniac he was hunting was someone he knew . . . someone he called a friend.

The fatal night

On a warm Florida evening, Karen Gregory saw a familiar face at her door. What the beautiful young woman could not know was that she was staring into the eyes of her killer--a savage monster who would rape her, stab her to death, and leave her battered body on the floor outside the bedroom.

The desperate search

Detectives frantically sifting through the evidence were tormented by one disturbing question after another: What did the strangely worded note from a friend mean? Why was the house so orderly, when it had been the scene of a frenzied struggle? Why were the bloody footprints on the carpet barefoot? What happened to the white lace teddy missing from Karen's drawer?
