Bright Young Women

In January 1978, Pamela Schumacher, the president of a Florida State University sorority, wakes to find a man fleeing her house after killing two of her sisters and maiming two more. As the only witness, Pamela spends the next four decades refusing to let the man be remembered as a charismatic figure rather than the killer he was. Her story intertwines with that of Tina Cannon, a woman hunting the truth about her partner's disappearance in 1974, who believes the same man was responsible. Knoll keeps the killer offstage and the women at the center, examining whose accounts get believed and whose get erased.
