action

Another gruesome serial killer is up to mischief in Massachusetts . The "Dominator" ambushes married couples in their bedrooms at night, ties the man up and forces him to watch his wife being raped and then murders him. He then abducts the women, murders them and places them in a remote park where he repeatedly assaults them.

Rizzoli sees similarities in the actions of the perpetrator with the actions of Warren Hoyt, the "surgeon" she was able to bring down a year earlier at the risk of her own life. He managed to escape from the high-security wing. The investigations show that the "surgeon" and the "Dominator" were in correspondence with each other and apparently allied. Your goal is to get revenge on Jane Rizzoli. In the tough and tough policewoman, they also sense a victim who will endure torture for a particularly long time and extend their pleasure accordingly.
