Summary

51-year-old Mary Lynn Witherspoon was living a chic life in downtown Charleston, SC. She taught French at a prestigious high school and volunteered at the local Children's Hospital. Her weekends were spent leisurely shopping, lunching & hosting bridge parties. One day in 2001, while she was at home, Mary Lynn saw someone outside staring at her from the sidewalk and her heart sank. It had been 10 years since she felt fear like this. A sense of dread washed over her as she realized….her stalker was back.
