Rex and Saskia, a young couple in love, are on vacation when they stop at a busy service station. Saskia is abducted in broad daylight and three years pass with no answers or closure surrounding her disappearance. Rex has nearly given up all hope when he suddenly begins receiving letters from her abductor.

A man’s relentless search for his missing girlfriend turns into a psychological trap when his kidnapper finally reaches out through the mail. This cold, clinical nightmare proves that the most terrifying thing isn't the unknown, but the terrifyingly calm certainty of a predator's logic.
