In a Parisian setting at the turn of the twentieth century, a charming con artist known as Adlon Mario, who thrives on seducing women for money, finds himself pursued by a woman who claims to be his long-lost love.

In 1845, Howard Hulloff, a self-proclaimed genius, moves to the quiet village of Dryden and quickly gains the trust of its residents—except for his wife, who grows suspicious of his strange behavior when he refuses to let her see his feet. When she dares to investigate, her curiosity leads to a shocking discovery, and soon after, both she and their child vanish under mysterious circumstances.
A veteran guide is murdered in the remote woods of Maine during a fishing trip, leaving three fishermen to grapple with the mystery of a phantom killer and the sudden, fatal shots fired from the darkness. As the investigation unfolds, a desperate fugitive evades capture in the wilderness, surviving by looting cabins and hiding from relentless law enforcement, until the manhunt culminates in a dramatic confrontation.
