The story follows the plight of Sonnie Keith Giacano, who starts out as a five-months-pregnant tennis widow who hasn't heard from her philandering, on-the-circuit husband, Frank, in two months. When he does call, it triggers a series of tragic events that will change Frank and Sonnie's lives forever. Eight months later, Sonnie's memory of the exact events is muddled at best, and she keeps having disturbing flashbacks. She begins to suspect that she is either losing her mind or the events that occurred that fateful night were not as accidental as they seemed. Determined to find some answers, she hooks up with a former police detective named Chris Talon. Chris has his own memories from which to escape, and he's reluctant at first to help Sonnie unearth her past. But soon, both their lives will change in ways they had not imagined -- and the thrills are just beginning.
