As her involvement becomes more personal, both with the stranger and the homicide, her inquisitive nature puts her in harm's way.

His only regret is that his father went to his grave, not understanding the importance of his career. When Portland is plagued by a deadly new threat, and a captivating outsider threatens to compromise his investigation, chaos erupts.
