The glow of the screen illuminates his heavily pierced, tattoo-stained face as his fingers dance nimbly across the keyboard...searching, hunting. His computer handle is Captain Howdy, and he surfs the local chat rooms for young female prey. Girls like Genevieveand Tiana, who mysteriously vanish after an online conversation with the cunning cyber-predator. Detective Mike Gage has a personal stake in the case: Genevieve is his daughter. When Tiana's corpse- tortured, pierced and scarred- is discovered in the river, Gage realizes that time is running out for Genevieve. Taking sadistic delight in Gage's desperation, Captan Howdy sends the detective a series of taunting emails, challenging him to a deadly online game of cat and mouse, and drawing him into his "modern primitive" world- a strange land of fetish bars, S&M, body modification and goth-rock.
