Computer expert and former marathon runner Naya struggles to recover from a serious multiple sclerosis attack, and settles into a routine of daily workouts at her Ottawa gym. Frustrated by her lack of progress, she's in no mood for wheelchair user Larson Rask and his endless prying questions. Noticing that his legs still look muscular, Naya guesses that he's only been in the chair for a short time. She puts aside her annoyance to patiently listen to him. To her horror, a police Tactical Unit raids the gym and arrests Larson Rask - on three counts of murder. Was he grooming her to be victim number four? Reluctantly, she's drawn into the world of sleuthing--tracking a ruthless serial killer who will stop at nothing to stay free.

Naya had the perfect life. Co-owner of a fast growing security software company, she ran marathons in her spare time. Suddenly everything changed when she developed multiple sclerosis, and now she can barely climb a flight of stairs. Hiding at home, her computer the only contact with the outside world, she reconnects with her childhood best friend. But when her friend disappears and the police dismiss her concerns, Naya leaves the safety of her home to find her. She ignores her physical limitations to follow a convoluted trail from high tech suspects to drug dealers, all while becoming an irritant to the police.
