In March of 1982 in Barnsfield, Massachusetts, attractive Patricia Kent turned thirty years old. She was a successful realtor and had taken over her father's business after he suffered a debilitating stroke, which he was slowly recovering from. She was still grieving the loss of her husband, who had died suddenly four years earlier and after only four months of marriage. Through a girlfriend of hers who owned a small airplane, she met Jeremy Droan, who worked as a small aircraft mechanic at a local airport. Jeremy was tall, handsome, and appeared to be a perfect gentleman. Before very long, he and Patricia began seriously dating and soon became engaged. Jeremy's apparent kindness and feelings for her were comforting after the recent years of sadness she had experienced. Before long, Jeremy learned of Patricia's excellent financial standings achieved from lucrative property sales commissions and wise stock market investments. When Patricia was sidetracked by a family tragedy, he absconded with twenty thousand dollars of her money and an almost priceless coin collection that belonged to her father. Devastated when she learns of this, Patricia hires a private detective to attempt to locate Jeremy and her father's stolen coins and bring him to justice. Before long, facts surface that paint an entirely different picture of Jeremy Droan. Instead of the well-mannered and caring young man he portrayed, he was actually a conman, a thief, and possibly responsible for several murders. With twists and turns, Patricia took on the mission to apprehend Jeremy with the help of the private detective.
