It appears that tall, sexy detective Ariel Anderssen is working her very last case. She's been captured by the hoodlum she's been tailing, stripped to her panties and is now tied to a chair, gagged with a tight cloth that's been taped over, and watching a candle slowly burn down. The candle burns slowly towards a string... a string that will ignite a small bomb and destroy the house where she encountered her quarry, and Ariel as well.

The wax drips down, and with each drip, Ariel knows she's closer and closer to the end. Can she escape before her fate is sealed?
