Manipulation blurs the lines between reality and deception for Police Officer Marcus Palmer. Now, he can't tell if what he feels is real or if he's fallen for the serial killer's mind games.
Officer Marcus Palmer has been chasing his mother's killer for over a decade. He and the police department have not come any closer to catching the murderer-the man dubbed The Butterfly Killer.
Marcus has come to terms that his mother's case may never be solved. The Butterfly Killer has gone silent, the last murder three years ago. The department thought he was gone.
Until now.
Marcus, an anti-social, and alienated officer, has become wrapped up in the FBI-led hunt for the serial killer wreaking havoc in his small town. With a vengeance, he's determined to track the killer down.
But when the recent murders start to diverge from the original six ten years ago, Marcus starts to suspect a copycat is behind it. His theory leads him closer to the copy cat than he ever wanted and now held captive by the killer, he must find a way to survive no matter what it takes.
