Connie has just moved to a lake in Montana. Her parents see real estate possibilities. She answers the phone. A mysterious voice asks for Johnny. She says, “Johnny doesn’t live here.” The man on the phone doesn’t believe her. He gives her a message. “Tell Johnny to meet me 8000 miles from Tokyo.” When she refuses he tells her do it or else she might be dead.Who is this mysterious caller? Who is Johnny? And why do the movers who are bringing the furniture into the cottage by the lake freak when she tells them what the caller said. They zoom away without saying one word.What is going on? Should she turn right around and flee back to Virginia herself? What kind of future could there be out west here in the middle of nowhere with an inexplicable death threat hanging over her head? Connie had better figure it all out soon or she might find herself doing the dead man’s float in the lake.
