An ex-logger comes to the aid of a woman who returns to her hometown in the Pacific Northwest and finds herself harassed and stalked by a former cop turned crime lord.

A modern fable set against the rugged backdrop of a Pacific Northwest logging community, this is the story of Lillian (Julia Stiles), a young woman newly returned to her hometown who becomes the subject of harassment by a man named Blackway (Ray Liotta), an ex-cop turned violent crime lord who operates with impunity in this small community on the edge of the wilderness. Forsaken by the local townspeople, advised by Sheriff Wingate (Dale Wilson) to leave town, Lillian decides instead to take a stand against her sociopathic stalker, and enlists the help of an ex-logger Lester (Sir Anthony Hopkins) and his laconic young sidekick Nate (Alexander Ludwig), the only two men in town brave enough, or crazy enough, to go with her, and go up against Blackway.—CF

When her mother dies, Lillian returns to her hometown to live in her mother's isolated house. Lilian is harassed by a man named Blackway, who was the former sheriff and now is a powerful criminal with many illicit activities in town. When he decapitates Lilian's cat, she goes to the Sheriff Wingate that advises her to leave the town. However, he mentions that a man named Scotty might help her since he faced Blackway in the past. Lilian goes to the lumberyard owned by Whizzer since Scotty is his employee, but he is not there. However, the old Lester hears her report and calls his friend Nate to join him in his search for the scum Blackway. How will be their showdown?—Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
