On a warm Florida evening, Karen Gregory saw a familiear 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, stab and leave her battered body on the floor outside the bedroom.
Detectives frantically sifting through the evidence were tormented by one disturbing question after another. Why was the house so orderly, when it had been the scene of a frenzied struggle?

Police detective Larry Tosi stayed up nights watching the video of the grisly crime scene, looking for that one telltale clue, until slowly and with growing horror he realized that the maniac he was hunting was someone he knew...someone he called a fried.
