Actually, it's not a mystery as to who did it, but as to why.
Gerald McRaney is Tom, an unhappily married truck driver in northeast Michigan who tires of married life (his wife is well portrayed by veteran actress Peggy Lipton, who looks quite good). Lipton is getting older, so Tom finds a young waif (Josie Bissett) whom he can manipulate and impress with his "wisdom". (I couldn't resist the sarcasm).
At any rate, Bissett thinks she has found her dream man, and buys into his tales of divorce, threats of violence, strange car explosions, etc. Apparently Tom is a borderline personality who must get what he wants, when he wants it (in this case, Bissett). He marries her, and takes her away from her job at an industrial laundry service. (She appears to have some brain cells, but nonetheless works at a minimum wage job). She is the perfect target for him. He gets her to manipulate his wife as well, who is almost murdered in the car explosion he has engineered, at the behest of a friend.
All in all, it is a bit over the top, but McRaney always adds something, and this was actually based on a true story. It is sad to believe some young girls can be so ignorant. 6/10
