A woman's slashed corpse is found in a seedy New Orleans apartment. On the outskirts of town, Olivia has a terrifying vision of the murder. Weeks later, another violent vision shatters her sleep. But jaded detective Bentz doesn't believe her - even when a second body turns up, slain in exactly the same manner Olivia described. Frustrated by Bentz's scepticism, captivated by her attraction to him, Olivia hopes she has had her last vision. But her dreams are invaded by more images - this time, the murderer's face as well as the victim's. Both are closer than she ever imagined.
