Mike Noble leads with his heart. It belonged to Lou Ann until she was killed in a highway crash. He can't give her up. Mike is a graduate professor and vice president at Great Rivers University (GRU). Students are his escape from his grief. One of Mike's students, Lynn Bosen, looks the part of a beautiful university junior that she is, but her beauty and her body belie her age. There is a big place in her heart for Mike. Security Director Bob "Bear" Drummer telephones Noble in the night to tell him that Lynn, in her half-time security role, has found the seminude body of a petite girl encased in four black plastic bags. Bob has a big heart. Those who love him most, fear it may betray him. Lynn, Mike, and Bob are brought together by the first of incidents that take the lives of more coeds. In a unique combination of events, they will all be involved in solving the murders.

There are those who will do anything to stop the embryonic stem cell research. They say they are doing God's work. Could be, or is there a hidden truth? Anti-stem cell demonstrators occupy the Free Forum area across from Mike's office. They plague him, but that, too, is not the whole truth. Is there a connection between Mike and their leader, and does a connection emerge between Mike and the woman he thinks of as "Eyes?" The truth of the promise of stem cells may have to wait. Then again, it is just possible you may catch a glimpse into the future.
