"Shes an undercover cop. Seduced by a fantasy. Trapped in a mystery. Led by a dangerous impulse. Its easy to lose control."

Lottie works a lot of overtime for the police, but she still has money worries. Her boss Joe is constantly harassing her and all the relationships she enters into are doomed to fail. Lottie is fed up with all this and withdraws more and more into her fantasy world, in which she is a well-paid call girl who is in control. When a drug raid, which she has prepared down to the last detail with Attorney Sam, goes wrong, something snaps in Lottie. She decides to turn her fantasies into reality...

good crime film by Locke in which Russell plays an undercover agent with more or less psychological issues surrounding her work where she can no longer distinguish between reality and fantasy.

When she accidentally witnesses the murder of a drug lord and finds a large sum of money, she decides to keep it hidden, but her brand new boyfriend and the public prosecutor she has just started a relationship with is on her trail.

Russell was in the prime of her beauty around that time, moreover the film is a more than reasonable character study, the ending is feel good romantic, perhaps not realistic but satisfying.
