Blurb: “The 3 days of terror began:
FRIDAY NIGHT 10:00
THE STRANGER ARRIVED IN TOWN- HIS REASON: SIMPLE AND HORRIFYING.
A BEAUTIFUL GIRL CAME HOME- HER
REASON: DESPAIR AND FEAR.
SATURDAY MORNING 9:00
WHEN THEY MET IN THE WOODS OUTSIDE OF THE TOWN, THE STRANGER TOLD HER OF THE MISTAKE SHE HAD MADE, OF THE POWERFUL HOLD HE NOW HAD OVER HER.
SUNDAY AFTERNOON 3:00
THEY ARRESTED HIM ...
but no jail could hold him long and when he saw her again he knew the only answer -
MURDER!”
