Dean R. (Dean Ray) Koontz

Originally published under the pseudonym Leigh Nichols.

No one could understand why Colin and Roy were best friends. Colin was so shy: Roy so popular, a ladies' man. Colin was fascinated by Roy and Roy was fascinated by death. One day Roy asked his timid friend,"You ever killed anything?" From that moment on, the two were bound together in a game too terrifying to imagine...and too irresitible to stop.
