Bonnie Moreland, who has recently adopted a baby, is approached in a supermarket lot by Sandra Conrad, who claims to be baby's biological mother. When Sandra follows Bonnie home, the terrified woman locks herself inside her house until her husband gets home. When he checks the property for Sandra, he finds her dead in the backyard. The investigation leads Kevin and Frank to the lucrative adoption practice of lawyer Joseph Dominic. The case touches Christine personally, as her sister and brother-in-law had approached Dominic for an adoption years earlier.
