Four young students are sadistically murdered, and an idyllic New England college town is gripped with fear. Later, four more students are found bloodied, cut and savagely tortured to death. Is there a serial killer on the loose, or is this the work of some bizarre cult, ritualistically preying upon innocent young college students? Finding no murder weapon or any real clues – except for a bloodied, shattered mirror – the police are baffled. As paranoia threatens to paralyze the campus, and coeds hunker down in their dorm rooms, just waiting for the next murder to take place and praying it won’t be them, a beautiful young undergraduate – Nancy Patrick – begins her own investigation. Raised by hippy parents and schooled in Wicca, Nancy realizes that the police are on the wrong track. On a hot, spring morning, Nancy and two friends drive out to a nearby quarry. It was here in the 1970’s, on another hot night, when three women, skinny-dipping in the quarry, were brutally murdered by a crazed drifter. Nancy senses a surreal presence that night, and wonders whether those murders, thirty -five years ago, may have something to do with what’s happening on campus today. As Nancy delves deeper and deeper into the campus murders, she begins to unravel a bizarre and frightening reality that threatens her own life. When her two friends are murdered, she briefly becomes a suspect, before a sympathetic cop realizes that she is not the murderer, but the only person who can lead them to the murderer…
