He takes his victims' lives and leaves behind mysterious pieces of a bizarre puzzle. And the only person who may be able to make sense of the serial killer's deranged plan is Lincoln Rhyme (Denzel Wahington), a onetime top homicide investigator. But after a tragic accident changes his life forever, Rhyme can only watch as other cops bungle the case...until he teams up with a young rookie, Amelia Donaghy (Angelina Jolie), who bravely searches out the clues that help them solve the case.But as the killer senses the cops closing in, Rhyme realizes that he and his partner are on the trial of a vicious, sadistic murderer who will stop at nothing on his deadly mission. And at any moment, Rhyme and Amelia could become his next targets - and their first case could become their last.Il fauche la vie des ses victimes et s'amuse à semer les pièces étranges d'un casse-tête morbide. La seule personne qui puisse peut-être voir clair dans le plan démentiel du tueur en série est Lincoln Rhyme (Denzel Wahington), un ancien enquêteur et l'un des meilleurs de la section des homicides. Relégué au rôle de spectateur à la suite d'un accident tragique, Rhyme assiste impuissant à l'échec de ses confrères. Il se remet toutefois dans le coup en faisant èquipe avec Amelia Donaghy (Angelina Jolie), une jeune recrue intrépide qui n'hésite pas à braver pour recueillir des indices.À mesure que le duo resserre son étau autour du tueur, Rhyme finit par comprendre que sa partenaire et lui ont affaire à un criminal cruel et sadique qui ne reculera devant rien pour mener à bien sa mission meurtrière. Rhyme et Amelia risquent à tout moment de devenir ses prochaines cibles, et leur première enquête ensemble pourrait bien être leur dernière.
