Peter Knott is everything that Brian Plender wishes he were. Knott is suave, good- looking, an exemplary student and popular. The friendship they maintain is as important to Plender as it is forgettable to Knott. Years later Plender is a dangerous man; a private investigator who specializes in extortion, blackmail, and intimidation. When Plender spots Knott with a girl way too young to be his wife he decides to follow them. What follows is an edge-of-your-seat trip into a nightmare story that manages to be both incredibly creepy and eerily profound.
