After divorcing her husband Jeff Lovechio, a Chicago Realtor, for cheating on her, Robin Curtis and her twelve-year-old son Paul relocate to New Mexico. Robin will teach at the local school. Her neighbor is also new to the town as Mike Landiware gave up his teaching at the university in Albuquerque to escape from the memories of his beloved but now deceased wife.
The quiet town seems perfect to Robin until punk Bobby Caldwell goes on a shooting rampage before killing himself. That same night a serial killer starts murdering a woman every evening. The townsfolk are on edge and Robin wonders if her ex is the culprit as he has recently threatened her by phone. However, when Paul and a friend vanish in the mountains chased by a paramilitary grpoup, a frantic Robin turns to Mike to rescue her son. What they face and what is going on will leave both shaken, if they survive to tell it.
