Sinopsis
El teniente Somerset, del departamento de homicidios, está a punto de jubilarse y ser reemplazado por el ambicioso y brillante detective David Mills. Ambos tendrán que colaborar en la resolución de una serie de asesinatos cometidos por un psicópata que toma como base la relación de los siete pecados capitales: gula, pereza, soberbia, avaricia, envidia, lujuria e ira. Los cuerpos de las víctimas, sobre los que el asesino se ensaña de manera impúdica, se convertirán para los policías en un enigma que les obligará a viajar al horror y la barbarie más absoluta.
