Elizabath Berkley stars as Alicia "Alllie" Brayman, a prominent public relation director at a prestigious firm in Chicago. Blake Preston (Barry Flatman) is her boss whom she looks up to as a mentor is leaving the company. Allie has been groomed to take his spot and she gets a party together at a train museum to celebrate. Once there, she meets Kyle Jones (J.H.Wyman) and he convinces her to have some drinks. Eventually, they go back to his place where they start to have sex when Allie notices a woman in the doorway. Kyle and Alllie jump up. Kyle struggles with the woman and Allie reaches for a statue and clobbers the woman with it, killing her. Kyle confesses that this was his lover and explains that since he knows the law that they should call 911. Confused, Allie goes along with Kyle's plan and they put the woman body in a car and drive it off the side of the road to make it look like an accident. Allie tries to put this behind her but Det. Ed Royko (Frank Schorpion) shows up at her a job. She finds out that someone saw her license plate and this make her nervous. Kyle starts showing up all over the place and this disturbs Allie. On her own, she goes to find out more about this mysterious Kyle and learns that he is a criminal. She is being blackmailed. Kyle shows up at her apartment and asks for $75,000 and he will give her the statue back that she hit the woman with and has her finger prints on them. This all builds up to a showdown between Kyle, Allie and the persistent detective Royko.
