At twenty-six, a brilliant medical student with a dark fascination for criminal psychology and forensic psychiatry catches the attention of Dr. Hannibal Lecter. A dinner party introducing her to FBI profiler Will Graham leads to a whirlwind four-month romance, but Will ultimately ends things, unable to handle how deeply she sees into his unraveling mind. Alone, broke, and secretly living out of her car while keeping up appearances at university, she is soon discovered by Hannibal—who offers her a place in his home, quietly drawing her into the heart of his world.
