In present day (1975) New Orleans, Michael Courtland (Cliff Robertson) is a land developer who is deeply haunted by the past. In 1959, his wife Elizabeth (Creator/GenevieveBujold) and their 9-year-old daughter Amy (Wanda Blackman) were abducted and held for ransom. The police bungled an attempt to rescue them, including a plan involving a briefcase full of blank paper instead of money. In the ensuing chaos, Elizabeth and Amy died. Michael has mourned their loss ever since, even erecting a memorial to them on the land where he'd intended to build a housing subdivision.
