Who knew that a career in video documentaries could lead to
crime? Such is the fate of Chicago's Ellie Foreman whose
shoots hook her up with misdeeds past and present. Here she
is producing a video about foster children that's being
financed by a successful Chicago real estate developer. Her
plans get thrown for a loop when a mysterious package
appears at her door one winter night. Inside she finds a
surveillance video showing the murder of a young woman. Who
was this woman and what is her connection to Ellie? The
cops shunt her aside, but the urgency she feels to find
answers, coupled with her professional knowledge of film,
compel her to sleuth despite the difficulties borne from a
complex history with her lover, David. A little digging
reveals that the murder victim was a courier with a dark
history forged in Eastern Europe at the time of the Soviet
Union's collapse. And a little more digging reveals dark
happenings here at home, money laundering, and the deadly
price of dealing in diamonds....
