If there is a way to look into the minds of serial killers and find out all their victims this way, is it worth tramping on human rights? The story explores a future state of society where the question comes up - with the usual Senate nonsense of agendas and beliefs being more important that what is best for the people. And in between is the story of a family that had quite of a bad experience when they went on vacation.

It is a gory story in places with feelings overriding reason more than show more once. Not bad on its own but a bit too heavy on the politics. show less
