A teenage girl has a nervous breakdown and is sent by her parents to a mental hospital at age 16. While she is in the mental hospital her mother passes away of an unspecified illness. At age 18 her father takes her out of the hospital and sends her to college. In her first semester of college she takes an abnormal psychology class focussing on sexual addiction. She acts out her inner turmoils in a string of sexual encounters, involving some partial nudity and lots of angst. Her mother appears to her in visions to scold her occasionally.

David Randall may be a schizophrenic, but he's no murderer -- at least that's what he claims. Having served time for two killings he swears not to have committed, Randall is now home, medicated and attempting to start a new life. But that proves difficult when the masked figure he sighted at the scene of the murders is back; a friend is in danger; and everyone seems to believe that he's the real threat in this chiller from Jack Thomas Smith.
