Three years later, and approaching forty, she is tired of her work for the Florida Board on Judicial Conduct and ready for a change.

But Jeri has a suspect whom she has become obsessed with and has stalked for two decades. Along the way, she has discovered other victims. Suspicions are easy enough, but proof seems impossible.
