Plot summary[edit]

A young supermodel, Kim McDaniels, is kidnapped during a swimsuit photoshoot at a hotel in Maui. Her abductor, Henri Benoit, taunts her periodically before he rapes her. Hours after Kim goes missing, her parents, Levon and Barbara, receive a terrifying phone call from Benoit at their Grand Rapids (Michigan) home.
