Ett hänsynslöst brott. En kamp mot klockan. En liga som som inte tvekar att döda ...Mörkret har just lagt sig när en bonde konfronterar inkräktarna vid ett pågående inbrott – utan att veta att det kommer att leda till hans död. Lika skrämmande som mordet är sanningen bakom vad förövarna var villiga att kallblodigt döda för.
