She's so happy letting the relationship slide along, she barely notices things are changing.Then an arsonist sets fire to a nearby house, and the woman who lives there is killed. With her overactive imagination running riot and her habit of envisioning herself meeting a horrible fate out of control, Lee convinces herself she will be the murderer's next victim.Yet what happens next is not death, but seduction.
