Jimmy Parisi is a cop who's got everything going for him - a good career with the Chicago PD, kids who have grown into nice teenagers through his singlehanded hard work and a beautiful young redhead who's just agreed to become his wife. But suddenly the flipside of Jimmy's life comes into play. Someone is raping and murdering attractive young women, then mutilating their corpses. Is this a brand new Jack the Ripper, transplanted to the streets of Chicago, or is there some method behind this cutter's madness? Cops in Parisi's department nickname the murderer 'The Farmer' as evidence suggests he's harvesting female organs for some sirister purpose of his own. Using criminal profiling techniques Parisi narrows his list of possible perpetrators to three - and then just one. And as Parisi gets more and more involved in the Cutter's case he begins to fear that the murderer is not just in it for the buzz that most rapist-killers enjoy. No, this psychopath is in the business of supplying fresh organs to the medical black markets of Europe and As a - and what's more it's the Mafia who act as his brokers.
Parisi is relentless in tracking his quarry down and killer and cop are set for an unforgettable confrontation in Parisi's own neighbourhood - in his own backyard, in fact, with his new wife firmly set in the Cutter's sights...
