Darren is being stalked by a woman, through letters and vitriolic phone calls. The near hysterical woman claims to be his biological daughter. Darren wants Temple to find out if this woman is in deed a child of his that he knew nothing about or if she is a dangerous nut. After finishing his heartfelt plea, Darren makes a pass at Temple, who walks out on the aging Don Juan. However, when he is shot on the set, she begins to investigate the women in Darren's life. As Temple peels away the layers of deception, danger to her own life grows stronger, forcing her personal body guard, Midnight Louie, to protect her while looking over his own shoulders to insure he does not become a victim too.......... Anytime Midnight Louie appears, readers know that they are in for a treat.
