 When a young soldier suddenly dies, his parents and his girlfriend are naturally shocked and upset by the news. Several months later a young man turns up at the parent s house claiming to be their dead son s best friend. They welcome him and invite him to stay for a while. They also introduce him to their son s girlfriend and she is similarly impressed by him. It is later discovered, however, that he is not what he appears to be and may have had a hand in their son s death. Since he cannot allow his plans to be found out, more deaths are soon to follow.
