Beverly thought she had found something special with Carl, until she realized that he had stolen from her. But he hadn't stolen just her money or her property...he had stolen her very life. Suddenly she was helpless and alone, able only to watch in growing despair as her flesh began to decay and each day transformed her more and more into a corpse -- a corpse without the release of death.

A VICIOUS CYCLE

But Beverly was not truly alone, for Carl was always nearby, watching her and waiting. He knew that soon he would need another unknowing victim, another beautiful woman he could seduce...and destroy. And when lovely young Megan happened into his web, he knew he had found his next lover. For what could possibly go wrong with his plan, a plan he had practiced to perfection so many times before?
