An elusive killer outwits police. When a crime reporter connects the dots, the hunter becomes the hunted.
Reporter Jimmy Eagan knows a good story when he sees one. After another young woman is found dead near Salem, Oregon clutching a bouquet of wildflowers, Jimmy is certain there's a serial murderer on the loose. He's even given the man a nickname: The Ophelia Killer.
But the police don't seem interested in Jimmy's theories, and the primary detective is treating Jimmy like a suspect. After nearly a year with no new leads and the police looking in all the wrong places, Jimmy must track down the real killer before he claims another victim.
