Criminals of Kansas City are being murdered and displayed to the public. In an annual ritual known as Blood Week, bodies appear around the city for seven days until the vigilante goes into hiding again. While the public debates, Detective Alexander Saint is charged with stopping the killer. He may be a playboy with a trust fund, but he takes his job on the force seriously. Teaming up with his new partner, Marcus Delgado, they must discover the meaning behind the clues written in Latin at each crime scene before he disappears for another year.
The detectives search for the killer in an investigation that forces them to deal with the morality of vigilantism. Is he doing the police a favor by cleaning up the streets, or circumventing the justice system by declaring himself judge, jury, and executioner? Saint and his partner must decide where they draw the line between justice and murder.
