A victim is found in a Chicago dentist chair, his tongue has been removed and his body mutilated. There is a note from someone calling himself 'The Shepard.' Detective Mike Church and Scott Willis from the Ultra-Violent Crimes Taskforce arrive on the scene. They have never witnessed anything like this. There is no evidence and nothing pointing them towards a suspect. How will they catch this madman? Will they catch him before the bodies start piling up? In The Shepard's world, there are only two types of people, good and evil. He sees it as his duty to rid the world of scum that have gotten away with their sins for far too long. He is the saviour for those who have no voice. He is The Shepard.
