SYNOPSIS



After her family dies, a young woman, Monika Queller, and her friend, James Anstey, are stalked then chased to San Francisco, where they stumble upon a secret...

Monika Queller's parents mysteriously die in a car accident. Their bodies are never recovered. Her father was a research scientist at Stanford University. Unable to bear the pain of her loss, Monika decides to start her life over, away from the reminders of her tragedy. She moves to Los Angeles where she takes a job as an adult education teacher.

Once settled in Los Angeles, strange things begin to happen to Monika. She is stalked, receives prank calls, her car is vandalized, finally her home is broken into and vandalized. She is at a loss to understand and turns to a colleague, James Anstey, for help. Unknown to Monika, James is an undercover CIA agent who has been placed in the school to protect and keep an eye on her. Monika's father was working on top secret experiments and his death is suspicious.

Monika discovers a note from her father, which was hidden in his old briefcase. The note directs her to go back to San Francisco and collect something from a post office box at the university, but she does not know what it is she will find there.

As Monika and James start out on their journey, they find themselves being followed by an unknown pursuer or pursuers. Soon they are being chased. They decide that they must try to get to the university before whoever is after them can catch them; it is their only hope of solving the mystery. Along the trip, Monika and James become romantically involved. Once at the university they retrieve an envelope from the post office box and are waylaid by their pursuers. James is taken captive, but Monika manages to escape with the aid of, Bill Meyers, an FBI agent who also has been following both of them.

Monika discovers that her parents are not dead. A ransom demand is made by James' captors for his safe return -the envelope for James. Working with the San Francisco FBI office chief, Mical Grai, and Bill Meyers, Monika agrees to the exchange. Grai is one of the bad guys. He is after Monika's father's secret research, though Monika and Meyers are not yet aware of this fact.

Further complicating the plot and without Grai knowing, James is rescued by another undercover operative, William, and an exchange meeting is arranged at Fisherman's Wharf. William's undercover operation suspects Grai and is hoping to set him up; he wants to expose and arrest Grai.

At the exchange Grai panics once he realizes that he has been set up. He takes Monika and tries to escape capture. Grai manages to get to his car and with Monika, attempts a get-away. Unfortunately the attempt is foiled when Monika struggles with Grai inside the car; a struggle that causes the car to crash and sink into the harbor.

Monika awakens in the hospital. She was rescued from the harbor, but does not remember anything after crashing into the dark cold water other than being trapped with Grai in his car and then passing out.

Now awake and recovered, the mystery is revealed to her. Grai is dead. Monika's parents are alive and by her hospital bed. The story ends as Monika is reunited with James, with whom she has fallen in love.
