Freeze Frame — Ilona Joy Saari

A U.S. Senator is shot on New York's Circle Line Ferry and his body disappears into the East River. The next day, Lorna Raven, a young videographer, is taping the contents of a Beekman Place townhouse for insurance purposes when she captures a shadowy image of a a man on the glass covering a painting. Her brother, an ex-reporter and her business partner, thinks that shadow looks like the "dead" Senator. She laughs it off. Naively, she has a passionate fling with a man who claims to be a New York policeman investigating the Senator's murder, and that's only one of his lies. Soon after, someone tries to kill her brother, putting him in a coma. Suddenly, nothing's funny anymore, and when someone tries to kill her she's forced to go on the run. Unable to trust anyone, she finds herself sucked into an intricate plot that leads to the highest level of American intelligence.
