In this psychological thriller, what at first seem to be the wholly insane (and gruesome) self-mutilations of a madman who is also probably a murderer are gradually revealed as the quite logical actions of a frantic man driven by circumstances to incredible extremes. Peter Winter (Peter Greene) is the madman in question, searching for his daughter on an island off the coast of New Brunswick while attempting to evade capture by a persistent detective. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi
