Didi Wood, eight and a half months pregnant with her third child, heads to a mall to get out of the oppressive Dallas heat and get some shopping done.  She is supposed to meet her husband for lunch at one o'clock.  By 1:45, she still isn't there-she's riding down the highway at breakneck speed with a madman at the wheel.  His name is Lyle, and he has abducted her from a department store parking lot.  But why he's done this, and what he wants, are anyone's guess.  Now the police and the FBI have to somehow track him down.  And a very pregnant Didi must keep herself and her unborn child alive at any price-even as they ride closer and closer into the darkest chamber of a psychopath's mind...
