Bryce Roberts, a young Navy Officer, faces an empty and shattered life when Marilyn, the wife he adores, is murdered by Charles Coe, a crazy-smart stalker, who is unrelenting in harassing Bryce, even from prison. The civilian job that awaits Bryce no longer matters. His infant son painfully reminds him of Marilyn. Fleeing his grief, Bryce seeks a new life in professional baseball, all the while fueled by hatred of Coe and burdened with guilt over leaving his son behind and neglecting his family's business. Candace Davis marries an Air Force pilot who respects that she is a gifted physicist. She bears his daughter and cheers her husband's return from Vietnam, only to lose him to a freak flying accident. Determined to make a new life for herself, she returns to academia and slowly pulls away from her grief as the rewards of teaching and research with lasers absorb her. Then she meets Bryce Roberts and a spark neither has felt in years is kindled. But Bryce Roberts has a problem. He must tell Candace that if she marries him a killer will stalk her. And Bryce may not always be there to protect her.
