Unable to cope with the memories of her sister dying on the set, film star Jenna Hughes leaves Southern California to relocate with her two daughters in Oregon. While her remote ranch provides Jenna with solace, her teenager rebels.
Meanwhile Sheriff Shane Carter worries that a serial killer is murdering women. The culprit apparently abducts his victim, kills her and dips the corpse in hot wax so as to replicate Jenna. This predator is Jenna's biggest devotee. Soon Jenna will learn first hand how devoted her greatest fan is.
