Ray is a struggling sports writer who spends his time thinking about women and only dreams about being a real writer. He moves to St. Louis in the hopes that he can have an opportunity to cover local sports but he gets swept up in the media buzz about a serial killer on the loose; a killer who preys on single women and their children. He's out there and Ray can't seem to let it go. On his journey he meets Abby, a gorgeous long-legged psychologist-in-training who is classier than any women he has ever been with, but he doesn't date classy women. He and Abby start a friendship and an adventure as they begin to put the clues together. The police can't figure it out but a sports writer and his friend are starting to catch on to The Phantom Killer.
