An investigation led to the discovery that the chatroom he had been visiting had played host to seven people from three different continents; in the past three months, six had died and now Fletcher had disappeared.

Looking back on the incident from the year 2045, the magazine "Mysteries of the Past" builds a case against Fletcher and re-examines all the known facts.

Driving away from the cabin, John wondered how this weekend's events would turn out. He had a very good feeling that this would be his new beginning and that this woman would save him from the man he had become. He had bet his life on it. John knew that he was trapped in an abusive marriage with his wife Heather, but he never expected what Heather would do to him or his kids for a chat room lover. When her lover ends the relationship, Heather inadvertently starts John's life in a direction he never would have fathomed. If only John had the gumption to do something about their problems sooner, his life might have turned out in a way he could be proud of instead of the misery that it had turned into. In an effort to do for others what he could never do for himself, John takes action and distributes his own brand of justice, but his chosen path constantly torments him. After a series of disturbing yet fulfilling events, John readies himself to end this chapter of his life. He begins searching for the one person that will finally extinguish his rage and free him from the man he has become. When John finds the ideal person, his life unfolds in a way he never could have anticipated or dreamed.
