Our story begins at a modest home in a small Texas town. It is early on a cold, dark and rainy morning when the alarm clock begins to ring, and Jim tries to wake his partner Sue. Neither of them want to get out of bed, but Sue is especially reluctant, and wakes up crying and more than a little shaken from a terrible dream. It had seemed so real, that her mother had been poisoned. It was so vivid in fact, that Sue is determined to travel over one hundred miles to make sure that mother is okay.
