Carla Brook-Parks, a Bostonian aristocrat, falls in love with a young policeman and becomes involved with social work. She loses her eyesight while saving three young children from their drug infested parents. A car wreck occurs in which a man dies, leaving his eyes as a donor. A doctor friend of Carla, in her same social status, convinces a brilliant ophthalmologist to let her have the man's eyes and do the transplant so she may regain her vision. Drugs are prevalent and the police are under duress to find the trafficking inside their city. Her transplanted eyes keep seeing the last of what the donor saw before he was killed. This leads Carla, working with Pete, into intriguing mysteries and murders.
