After years of searching, Chris Wilcox has now uncovered a number of things about the person who killed his wife.

Cheryl Wilcox wasn’t the murder’s first victim. All the victims were redheads, and they were all eaten alive and dumped within a mile of the ocean.

When Chris and two other survivors find a trace of the killer's DNA, they hire the services of an advanced laboratory which leads to a shocking discovery.

The killer is far more deranged than they had thought. And now, the hunter has become the hunted.

As Kelly Pratihari-Reid and her husband sail into Antarctic waters with their yacht, they think that their biggest concern will be ice and storms, and their marriage which is on the rocks.

“It’s coming. It saw us and it’s coming back!”

Those were her words.

Even though the girl’s voice isn’t clear due to a tide of signal-jamming static, Kelly is able to identify a target on the radar screen. A ship is headed their way.

In the ship is a crew of pirates under the command of a young sadistic leader on a shocking mission.
