Gerard Lunders ist ein rücksichtsloser Playboy, der eine junge
Studentin grausam ermordet hat. Nun steht er vor Gericht.
Eigentlich ein Routinefall für die Staatsanwältin Ellie Riordan und
den Ermittler der Mordkommission Mannie Alvarez. Doch dann nimmt
der Fall eine bizarre Wendung. Die Mutter des Verteidigers erhält
ein Videoband, auf welchem eine junge Frau gefoltert und ermordet
wird- genau wie das Opfer von Gerard Lunders.
THEY WATCH.
The body of a student who went missing from a Florida nightclub is
found in a dumpster. A horrifying scene, but nothing compared to
what she had to endure before her murder. She was drugged and
tortured - all broadcast live for the twisted pleasure of a snuff
club.
THEY WAIT.
Detective Manny Alvarez works the homicide alongside young hotshot
Assistant State Attorney Daria DeBianchi. The media spotlight
shines on the accused, a privileged playboy seen leaving the club
with the victim. But without cast-iron evidence, Daria and Manny
must dig deeper to crack the case.
THEY TAKE WHAT THEY WANT.
The investigation exposes a terrifying connection between numerous
unsolved murders and abductions stretching across the country.
Their only lead is through notorious serial killer William
Bantling, who knows the sinister society's secrets first-hand.
But Bantling won't show his hand for free - he wants off Death
Row.
For Manny and Daria, the nightmare is just beginning. And the only
thing more devastating than this case's past is what lies ahead
