Imagine being Dr Jordan Chamberlain, a successful, beautiful, young medical examiner with the perfect husband, the perfect life, and perfect friends. Somewhat of a whiz, kid, she's younger than most Medical Examiner's and enjoys a bit of glamor whenever forensic data is sent to trial.

To an outside observer, she has it all, until that is, her husband, Jason announces one day without warning that he doesn't want to be married anymore. Jordan's perfect life crashes and burns all around, her. She buries herself even deeper into work and embarks temporarily on a career consulting with the FBI's Violent Crimes Division, under the careful eye of college friends turned colleagues, who support her as she tries to rebuild her life.

Her future, however, is once again compromised when Jordan becomes the next target of the serial killer she's been pursuing.
