Detective Marc Allen is one of the top cops in his homicide unit in North Carolina. However, one case eludes him. He is sure a young woman, Teri, is a killer. But her father takes the blame in a suicide note. Allen decides he needs a change of scene and goes out west.
What are the chances all the major players end up in the same town of Colorado Springs? There, we also meet two young people Hannah and her best friend Rampart. In a freak accident, Hannah suffers a severe brain injury and almost loses her life. Hannah is an interesting case. After coming out from a coma, every word she speaks is in riddles. And what can you say about Teri and her boyfriend? Shades of the old movies, "Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry" meet "Kalifornia"! Teri starts to stalk Allen and every one involved with him, since she is determined he has to pay.
After several twists and turns and non-stop action, the story comes to an unexpected conclusion.
