The brutal murders of three young boys paralyze the
citizens of Platte City, Nebraska. What's worse is the
grim realization that the man recently executed for the
crimes was a copycat. When Sheriff Nick Morrelli is called
to the scene of another grisly murder, it becomes clear
that the real predator is still at large, waiting to kill
again.
Morrelli understands the urgency of the case
terrorizing his community, but it's the experienced eye of
FBI criminal profiler Maggie O'Dell that pinpoints the
true nature of the evil behind the killings—a revelation
made all the more horrific when Morrelli's own nephew goes
missing.
Maggie understands something else: the killer
is enjoying himself, relishing his ability to stay one
step ahead of her, making this case more personal by the
hour. Because out there, watching, is a killer with a
heart of pure and perfect evil.
