The Angel is tired of seeing known criminals not only get away with crime, but repeating the same offense. The Angel has become an avenging angel who is punishing the evildoers who manage to cheat justice.
Jimmy Brewer, a retired Baltimore cop and investigator for the prosecutor's office, lives in Juno Beach, Florida. Jimmy is trying to find peace after being burned out by his "The Bright Eyes" case and the destruction of his marriage. His friend and lover, Liz Mckinley asks him to help her on her current assignment. He reluctantly agrees to help her locate teenager Randy Arminger and his girl friend Holly Haskins. Randy, a genius with straight A's in school, killed his father, his sister, his teacher and his spouse, and Holly's father. Holly killed her mother. The police have no leads except for the filming of the killings that Randy loaded onto the internet. Jimmy is determined to end the teens' reign of terror and with a little assistance form the Angel, he might succeed.
