Description
STRANDED....
Julie looked up and down the freeway. Vehicles zoomed by in an endless string of lights. It could be hours before anyone came to help. Headlights glared behind her. A man got out. Let me take you to a phone, call a tow. Sometimes you could tell a person's character by their eyes. It was too dark. But she had to take the chance, accept his offer of help. If she didn't get home soon, her husband would really kill her.
ANOTHER SERIAL KILLER COMES TO LOS ANGELES....
In vast yet isolated Southern California, connected only by freeways, a new monster is evolving. He strikes and slips away into the river of traffic to brutally rape and strangle his victims. Cathy Buchanan, housewife and mother living in upscale Torrance, and Lorraine Johnson, a postal worker in South LA, are preoccupied with their lives. Cathy's idyllic existence is slowly dissolving as she grows certain her husband is having an affair. Lorraine has a broken heart and issues with her disapproving mother and drug-addicted sister. As the killings mount, the Southland begins to panic. Evidence from the latest murder suggests the killer is black. Lorraine's got her doubts. Cathy feels relieved. The media go crazy.
Family crises and a random set of events will bring these two very different women together when the killer strikes again. Now they have only each other. They never imagined what would become necessary for a chance to survive. And no one could have predicted the way their ordeal will end.
