The police think Charlotte is way off base as her grief boils into a reckless quest for truth. Jeopardizing partnership aspirations, she infiltrates the baseball world, resolute in solving the crime. A gruff Atlanta Journal-Constitution reporter helps Charlotte piece together the gruesome trail to a jet-setting neat freak who preys upon newfound lovers. As she risks her relationship, career, and sanity, Charlotte is stalked and strays into the line of fire. Has her obsession gone too far? Will Charlotte see her mistake before it’s too late?
