ストーリー
In the aftermath of his wife's accidental death and a recent move to New York with his young son, police psychologist Cal Jamison finds himself reluctantly drawn into investigating a series of grisly, ritualistic murders involving the immolation of two youths. The murders bear the hallmarks of Voodoo or Santería rituals, and despite warnings from his housekeeper, Jamison becomes personally involved in the case, entering the scene of the crimes and eventually becoming influenced by the cult's beliefs. As he delves deeper into the investigation, Jamison believes that the cult may be targeting his own son for a child sacrifice.
