No matter how tight Kari pulls the bedcovers, she can't escape her fear. That disturbing voice invades her mind night and day. Kari Roberts used to have a dream lifestyle. She was the wife of a successful businessman, a stay-at-home mother to three children, and blessed with everything she'd ever wanted. Her perfect world is turned upside down after her husband is imprisoned for a white-collar crime. She moves her family into a cramped condo and struggles to make ends meet at her unglamorous data entry job. When the suave owner of a real estate agency offers her a good-paying position in his office, she jumps at the chance to reign in her out-of-control life. Then the late night phone calls start. The stalker, angry for his stock losses in the wake of her husband's business scandal, begins making threats against both her and her children. Unable to turn to her husband for safety, she gets closer to her boss, who is interested in more than just her office skills. As Kari worries her fears may be realized, she must deal with the choices she's made. The consequences of those choices may change her family again -- this time forever.
