A deer hunter tracking his wounded prey through the Minnesota woods gets much more than he bargained for when he makes the grisly discovery of a young girl's body. The girl had been pregnant, but the fetus has been removed from her womb and an inverted pentagram drawn on her forehead. After the girl is identified as the daughter of a high-powered senator, FBI agents Bernadette Saint Clare and Tony Garcia are called in to find the murderer and the missing baby.
