In 1985, police officer Norman Daniels brutally beats his wife Rosie while she is four months pregnant, resulting in a miscarriage. Rosie considers leaving Norman, but dismisses the idea because Norman is a cop who specializes in finding missing persons and she has nowhere else to go as her family died in a car accident years earlier. The short-tempered Norman has recently been accused of raping a Black woman named Wendy Yarrow, and the subsequent lawsuit and internal affairs investigation has made him even more volatile.

Nine years later, Rosie notices a drop of blood on the couple`s bedsheet and realizes that, if she stays with Norman, he will eventually kill her. Taking his credit card, Rosie departs on a bus to an unfamiliar city in the Midwest, with no clear plan of action. Once there, she meets a good-natured man named Peter Slowik, who guides her to a local women`s shelter.
