Plot – Will Graham is a former FBI agent who lives in Florida with his wife Molly and his son Kevin. His previous case - the hunt of Dr. Lecter - costed him even a temporary shelter in a mental institution. He is now back to work and cannot resist his colleague's demands: in fact he cannot find any clue about a homicidal maniac who commits appalling massacres during full moon nights. Many young couples with children in fact are found dead, killed according to macabre rituals. Will, fascinated by the killer's twisted personality, gradually reassembles the horrendous puzzle and the case becomes for him a new dangerous obsession.
