"I've been following him for days. I know where she goes shopping, where she takes her clothes to be cleaned, where she works. I don't know what color her eyes are or how she looks when she's scared. But I'll find out soon." His father is a respected judge in Chicago, his mother is a strict socialite. Defying family expectations, young Mia Dennett works as an art teacher in an inner-city school. One night, she has a date with her boyfriend at a bar, but he doesn't show up and Mia leaves with a mysterious stranger. With his calm movements and modest manner, Colin Thatcher promises to be a safe one-night stand. But it turns out that she made the most serious mistake of her life when she went up to Colin. Colin's job was to kidnap Mia and deliver her to her clients in a wild blackmail operation. But the plan takes an unexpected turn, because he suddenly decides to hide the girl in a secluded Minnesota vacation home, where neither the police nor her life-threatening bosses can find her. Mia's mother, Eve, and Inspector Gabe Hoffman search for them without stopping, but no one can predict the emotional complications that will eventually lead to the family's disintegration.
