Dr. Erin Tyler moves to New York City to take a job at an internal medicine clinic in Brooklyn. She is exhilarated with this new chapter in her life. An English rock musician boyfriend, a loving sister and brother-in-law living close-by, and with the excitement only New York City can provide, it seems like she has it all.
Unknown to Erin, a rapist is on the loose in New York City. Under a charming and intelligent guise, he is drugging woman with the date-rape drug Rohypnol. He can then lead his victims away without a struggle, where they are powerless to stop him from an assault they will not remember. As the clues begin to point to the pharmacist Kyle McKagan as the perpetrator, no one knows that he has already become obsessed with the beautiful Dr. Erin Tyler. Even though her rock musician boyfriend, Steve Robinson, has warned her that something about Kyle doesn't seem right, Erin refuses to believe that she is in danger. Kyle will now stop at nothing until she is claimed as the prize. | ||
