Description

A dead body is discovered on a beach in a small Québec town one morning. A note left with the mutilated victim—a man himself recently acquitted in a controversial homicide trial—suggests his killer is a woman with vengeful motives. Before long, a second slain body is found, and then another. The string of grisly murders leaves Inspector Jacques Fournier scratching his head. Who is the woman behind the killing rampage? What is driving her sadistic instincts, her quest for vengeance? Together with his colleague Annabelle Saint-Jean, Fournier undertakes everything in his power to tackle this challenging case. The killer, for her part, mocks the police, as they scramble to solve the mystery. The investigation takes them on a bizarre journey into the S&M underworld. Doggedly tracking a new lead one moment, breaking into a wild police chase the next, Fournier leaves no stone unturned as he struggles to unmask and capture the elusive killer queen. But will he succeed?
