The setting is the streets of New York, and the year is 1991. Four women have
been murdered from all different walks of life, including a cheerleader,
stockbroker, a housewife and a prostitute. Homicide detective Dave Dillion of
the NYPD is on the case and must solve these murders or risk losing his job.
Dave encounters a beautiful social worker by the name of Megan Morrison, the two
join forces in search for the serial killer, and romance ensues.
The press is calling the serial killer “Ladykiller”. The killer has left no
clues and no trail behind to follow. The murders always take place in some out
of the way place where no witnesses can be found. There are never any signs of
the victim being taken against her will and no signs of a struggle with their
attacker, and the murders all appear to be personal in nature. Will Dave find
the killer before its too late?
