Bright Young Women

In January 1978, a serial killer was causing fear in the Pacific Northwest, but the young women in a top sorority at Florida State University in Tallahassee had other things on their minds. They were looking forward to a night full of promise, excitement, and desire. However, their sorority president, Pamela Schumacher, made a decision that would unknowingly save her life – she chose to stay home.

Around 3 a.m., Pamela was awakened by a strange noise, prompting her to investigate. What she discovered behind the door was a scene of unimaginable violence – two of her sorority sisters were dead, and two others were seriously injured. This marked the beginning of a horrifying mystery that drew inspiration from a crime that had captured public attention for over four decades.

On the other side of the country, Tina Cannon had found peace in Seattle after enduring years of hardship. Her life took an unexpected turn when she met Ruth Wachowsky, a 25-year-old woman with her own painful secrets. They formed an instant connection. However, tragedy struck when Ruth went missing from Lake Sammamish State Park in broad daylight, in the midst of a crowded beach. Tina was determined to find out what happened to her.

Upon learning about the Tallahassee tragedy, Tina realized that the culprit was the man known as the All-American Sex Killer. She was resolute in making him answer for what he had done to Ruth. So, she traveled to Florida, where her path would cross with Pamela's, leading to another impending tragedy.
