In the fall of 2004, police officers rescue Jennifer Hitchcock from the Wisconsin hotel room where her abusive and obsessive boyfriend, Maurice Mason, has been holding her. But Mason refuses to let her go. He recruits his nephew Bennie Frier as an accomplice and follows Jennifer to Nebraska, where he intends to get her back - no matter what. Mason tracks down his one time lover, savagely beats her, and kidnaps her. He and Frier then begin the trip back to Wisconsin. It's a trip that will find one man bound and left for dead in the wilderness, a cab driver gunned down, and Jennifer herself brutally murdered.
