A dark, tense exploitation thriller centered on sexual violence and predation, where a schoolteacher becomes bait in a hunt for a serial killer stalking her community.

After a schoolgirl is raped while taking a short cut through the local woods, and another murdered a few days later, the police are baffled. With the help of a reporter, and against the wishes of a local psychologist, a young schoolteacher uses herself as bait to lure the perpetrator out.
