When a serial murderer with a macabre, ritualistic style plunges the families of Los Angeles into terror, the L.A.P.D., making no headway on the baffling case, are forced to summon the one man whose instinct and understand of the criminal mind are unrivaled: Detective Jack Cole from New York. The iconoclastic Cole is paired with seasoned local homicide detective Jim Cambell, and the two quickly discover that their match was made somewhere other than heaven.
