While on assignment as a reporter for a local newspaper, seventeen-year-old Chloe meets Kieran, a quirky aspiring actor.

He confides in Chloe that he suffered a traumatic childhood. If Kieran could be healed, Chloe believes their relationship would be perfect but her efforts to help him backfire. Kieran becomes violent and, broken-hearted, Chloe breaks up with him. Kieran's remorse turns into a frightening quest for revenge. Chloe must use her investigative journalism skills to overturn his lies against her.
