A child. A girl. A teenager. Hurt and given no value, abused and neglected. Twenty years later, a chance for retribution and things change, the pursuit begins and the punishment is planned and executed. Three people, three brutal murders with similar patterns, suggest the actions of a serial killer. L.A.P.D. homicide detectives work the case and try to figure out the common theme that draws these cases together. What is the motive? Who is next? How do we stop the killer? These are the questions that drive them in their investigation, but the deeper they probe the more confusing the case becomes. Clues don't align, evidence is inconsistent, and there is a pervasive sense that all is not as it appears for the investigators.
