The premise

Deputy Sheriff Joe "Deke" Deacon joins forces with Sgt. Jim Baxter to search for a serial killer who's terrorizing Los Angeles. As they track the culprit, Baxter is unaware that the investigation is dredging up echoes of Deke's past, uncovering disturbing secrets that could threaten more than his case.

Horror Vault's take

Set against the gritty backdrop of 1990s Los Angeles, a seasoned deputy sheriff with a troubled history reluctantly partners with a sharp LAPD detective on the trail of an elusive serial killer. The case cuts closer to home than either man expects, as old wounds resurface and the psychological weight of the hunt begins to distort the line between justice and personal demons. With three powerhouse performances driving every scene, this is a cat-and-mouse thriller that lingers long after the credits roll.
