Over the course of a decade, editors of the San Francisco Chronicle entice themselves in the murders of the Zodiac Killer. However, as time runs its course, and as interest in the case dwindles in the eyes of the professionals, and as the Killer stops interacting with the public, an amateur cartoonist from the initial sightings races against time to prevent another murder, believing this time he has the answers to crack the case.
