Peter Harmon is a sophomore in college and best friends with Ben Prescott, a spoilt rich kid from the Hamptons. Peter comes from a troubled background but he works hard to put all that behind him, as he nurses his ambition to be a published author, and concentrates on his studies. But one day, Peter meets Ben's father, Robert, and the sexual attraction between the two is immediate and overwhelming. They start an illicit affair as Robert's marriage to Ben's socially ambitious mother starts to unravel. Then the murders begin and the city of New York is gripped by fear. Someone is making menacing, threatening phone calls, and as the body count starts to rise, random men are murdered, their tortured and mutilated bodies found around the city. But, are they random or connected to Peter's blood-stained childhood memories? In the shocking climax, the caller is unveiled in menacing sick detail as the killer will stop at nothing.
