An elusive serial killer is murdering women and the police are unable to catch him. So an undercover policewoman by the name of "Tracy Fleming" (Donna Mills) volunteers to act as bait over the strong objections of her boss who feels it is simply too risky. In doing so she winds up putting not just herself but her entire family in danger as well. At any rate, Donna Mills puts on a pretty good performance in this "made-for-television" movie. Likewise, William Devane also does a good job as the serial killer, "Earl Stokey". Now, because this film was made for prime-time audiences you shouldn't expect anything too graphic. Personally, I would have preferred otherwise simply for the effect. But this picture does have some exciting moments and Donna Mills is definitely a beauty in whatever role she plays. That said, while it may not be the best crime-drama ever produced it is probably worth a person's time all things considered.
