Jessica Carson was excited about moving away from home for the first time, but her new apartment left much to be desired.
Her bedroom badly needed paint, and there was a big black spider in the windowsill.
Jessica had always been afraid of spiders, but the creature wasn't harming anything, so she let it be.
In the weeks that followed, Jessica was so busy with work and school that she didn't notice that a man in the neighborhood was watching her and making plans.
One moonless night when Jessica was sound asleep the man quietly forced open her bedroom window and began to climb inside.
The would-be rapist did not see the glittering black eyes of the spider until it was too late.
Jessica was awakened by a high-pitched whining coming from the window. She assumed that her arachnid friend had trapped another insect, and so she went back to sleep.
