On a rainy night, an SUV is found at the base of an
embankment in rural New Hampshire. Sgt. Wyatt Foster deals
with the injured driver, Nicole Frank, who is frantically
calling for a young girl named Vero. However, a thorough
search of the area turns up no other occupant of the
vehicle. Nicole\'s husband, Thomas Frank, arrives on scene
informing Wyatt that his wife has taken several bad falls
recently and suffers from the aftermath of a concussion.
Does this mean Vero is not real and only a figment of
Nicole's imagination, or is something more ominous going on
with Nicole and Thomas?
PI Tessa Leoni, with whom Wyatt has a personal
relationship, aids the investigation with meticulous
research and intelligent insight. What starts with a single-
auto accident soon develops into a deeper exploration of
something much more sinister as it uncovers a history of
shocking crimes from 30 years ago. A complicated process
that cannot be undone until all the disturbing facts are
uncovered -- and Nicole faces the suppressed memories of her
past.

Because it turns out, in the past few months, Nicky has suffered from more than one close accident….In fact, it would appear someone very much wants her dead. This is my life. Except, most likely, it’s not. Now watch me crash and burn.
