It seems to Angela that her life is going nowhere. Her career as a journalist has stalled, her fiancé has broken off their relationship, and she has recently lost her parents in a motor vehicle accident.
A chance encounter with a stranger at the mall changes all that, but there is something mysterious about him. He appears to possess abilities that border on the supernatural.
Is he good or evil? Should she encourage the relationship or run from it? Is he somehow connected with the recent spate of crime in the city and in particular the murder of a mayoral candidate?
It will take all her investigative abilities and what little faith she has left to uncover the answers.
