Sam Bowden is a small-town corporate attorney. Max Cady is a tattooed, cigar-smoking, Bible-quoting, psychotic rapist. What do they have in common? 14 years ago, Sam was a public defender assigned to Max Cady's rape trial, and he made a serious error: he hid a document from his illiterate client that could have gotten him acquitted. Now, the cagey Cady has been released, and he intends to teach Sam Bowden and his family a thing or two about loss.
A suffocating sense of dread builds as a vengeful, tattooed predator hunts the family of the lawyer who once betrayed him. This sun-drenched nightmare turns a quiet Southern town into a psychological battlefield.
