A peaceful town is turned upside down as an ax-wielding murderer hunts his victims one by one. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to the killings, and not even the police can figure out a motive. Who is committing these heinous acts? What is the connection between the victims? When Dr. Lewis Tanner arrives back in town after a long absence, he studies each case in turn and believes he knows who the killer is--but how can he?
