Silent Stalker (2012)
“She was, Carver thought, the kind of girl whose whole life was defined by her prettiness. It trailed after her like the tail of a comet.

He was about to even the score. He knew where she went, when she... went there, and who she went with. Most important, he knew when she would be alone. Carver was patient—oh, so patient. It was one of his most useful virtues.

Like all actresses, she was vain, always watching her figure.MoreLess
