Description
Silence of the Lambs reborn in a gripping serial killer thriller.
Chestnut Hill is one of Philadelphia's most upscale neighborhoods. But in one gleaming home, in a teenager's lavish bedroom, a girl has been brutally murdered.
The atrocity kicks off an investigation by police who connect the girl's murder to a bizarre string of increasingly disturbing murders.
A serial killer is loose -- someone of unprecedented savagery.
As the city's panic rises, Teddy Mack, a civil attorney just out of law school, is forced by a partner at his new firm to defend the undefendable.
But soon after, another girl goes missing. A girl who might still be alive. And Teddy discovers something the police never guessed.
The serial killer has a secret. He's collecting something. Something twisted. Something horrific and vile.
To end the madman's reign, Teddy must enter his maze -- a place of unimaginable terror where human demons emerge with a vengeance.
