Beth Williamson (Donna Mills) has suffered for years at the hands of her violent husband Tim (Corbin Bernsen), their apparently happy marriage being in reality nothing more than a sham of terror and abuse. Eventually Beth decides to take matters into her own hands and flees to a woman's shelter. But Tim is on the rampage and when he murders Beth's best friend, Beth is faced with a terrible choice: either stay safe in the shelter or risk her own life for the chance of seeing justice done.
