Based on a true story. A young woman is killed and all that is left behind was the killers calling cards, a bloody axe, and a note. Soon a second body is discovered and the police now realize they have a serial killer on hands. With re-election fast approaching the mayor demands action. The Chief assigns two of his top detectives to the case. A case that is like no other they have ever seen. But as the killings continue and the notes left behind turn to taunts the police realize that they are now involved in a dangerous game of cat and mouse with a madman. No one is safe, not even the one's they love. With little or no clues the two detectives turn the city upside down in a desperate race to find the one thing that can lead them to the "Axeman." Can they find they the bloody "Axeman" before he finds them?
