Lillith Cross, an upcoming graduate of Lennox High School, has been raised under the care of Alexander Cain, the local town sheriff, for 10 years. Because of the fact that her mother had given her away at the age of 8, she has become distant from everyone else. Andrew Carter, a local trouble maker whose parents were murdered at the age of 9, attends the same high school as Lillith, and it doesn't start off with love at first sight. Meanwhile, an enraged serial killer, Caleb McMahen, has escaped from prison with the urge to kill once more. And his target: Officer Cain and Lillith.
