After a six month suspension for reckless disregard of police protocol, Detective Max Garret is assigned to robbery-homicide and sent downtown to investigate the apparent suicide of a junkie. Teamed with Lieutenant Eddie Fulton the case quickly unfolds as one in a string of serial murders. The search leads them to the studio of Laura Cross, a sultry, wise cracking photographer whose focus is bondage and domination.
Max soon finds out that Laura is no stranger to Lt. Fulton from his days working with the sexual battery unit. With his marriage hanging together by a thin thread, Max is intrigued by Laura’s dark side, and her obsession with bondage.
As he is pulled further into the crime investigation and lured closer to Laura, Max is once again ignoring police procedure and breaking the rules, which this time, may land him in the arms of a killer.
