The victim’s beautiful daughter, Jennifer, hires John to handle the estate. They soon begin a passionate affair, putting John’s relationship with his wife and teenage daughter in jeopardy. But when John decides it’s time to end things, Jennifer has other ideas. He soon finds himself caught up in a tangled mess and smack-dab in the middle of yet another mysterious murder—this time of Jennifer’s brother.

Implicated for a crime he did not commit, John’s darkest secret is revealed to the world when he struggles to prove his innocence in court. Just when things could not get worse, the Torso Murderer emerges to stalk John, his friends, and his family. When his precious daughter is abducted, John must confront his inner demons once and for all and come face to face with the killer himself.
