Becca Matlock is at the top of her professional game, the senior speechwriter for New York's popular governor, when she receives the first phone call: "Stop sleeping with the governor or I'll kill him." Although Becca isn't sleeping with the governor, the menacing ultimatums persist. The police stop believing her, even after the stalker murders an innocent to prove a point. When the governor is shot in the neck, Becca flees for the safety of coastal Maine, seeking to hide not only from the stalker but also from the authorities. For sanctuary, she goes to Riptide, home of a college friend - where she soon finds herself at even greater risk.
