Una noche, cuando regresa a casa del trabajo, Wendy Harper es brutalmente atacada con un bate de beisbol. El agresor huye al verse descubierto, pero Wendy sabe que volvera a por ella y que la proxima vez no se permitira mas errores. Por eso recurre a Jack Till, un ex agente del Departamento de Policia de Los Angeles que la ayuda cortar cualquier lazo con su pasado para iniciar otra vida bajo una nueva identidad. Seis años mas tarde, Till sigue sintiendose orgulloso de su labor en aquel caso. Pero Eric Fuller, el antiguo socio de Wendy, acaba de ser acusado de su asesinato. Y el detective solo podra demostrar su inocencia si saca a la luz lo que el mismo se encargo de esconder. Till se lanza a investigar el paradero de Wendy, pero no es el unico.
