Professor Fred Miller, PhD, had been receiving threatening e-mails from an anonymous sender. He thought they were a joke. Neither his housemate, Dr. Ann Milani, nor his old school chum, Detective Jackson agreed. Their investigation, however, did not determine the perpetrator before Dr. Miller was shot to death in his residence. The twists and turns of search for the killer and an associated romance bring us to the conclusion of a diabolical scenario including corrupt law enforcement officers and an overconfident professional assassin. A story of emotion versus morality versus social etiquette.
