Synopsis

Un insaisissable tueur en série kidnappe et tue de façon abjecte des fillettes. Il est activement recherché par la police. Mais le mécontentement des habitants est tel, que la pègre de Los Angeles craignant également que la police ne finisse pas fouiller dans ses affaires, ne tarde pas à s’en mêler. Débute alors une chasse à l’homme haletante.
