Foolish Desire

Foolish Desire is the story of a feisty young widow (Jenna Nightingale), who determines to start a new independent life. She struggles to overcome her conflicting need for independence weighed against her deep desire as a woman to love and be loved by the right man. Despite her best intentions, her first night out with a new girlfriend inadvertently attracts the attention of the wrong man. On being rejected, he begins an escalating campaign of terror against Jenna. Jenna finds herself turning to her neighbour (John Shepherd) for support.
