It was the summer of 1965. Ray, Tim, and Jennifer were just three teenage friends hanging out in the campgrounds, drinking a little. But Tim and Jennifer didn't know what their friend Ray had in mind. And if they'd known, they wouldn't have thought he was serious. Then they saw what he did to the two girls at the neighboring campsite--and knew he was dead serious. Four years later, the 60s were drawing to a close.

Amazing. That is the one word I have to describe this book. It follows the life of a crazed murderer, and his friends and their lives after the aftermath of his first killing which they were witnesses of. This book starts sort of slow but I believe it was meant to do that. It was menat to start slow...
