Julie needs a partner who knows about sadists. She asks for Rosemary Finn the ex-police chief Julie forced to retire. Rosemary agrees but has an agenda, to humiliate Julie to extract her pound of flesh for forcing her to retire.

The victim has a brand, it says she is the property of J Teddington Hawthorne III. They discover that Teddy, as he likes to be called is a billionaire sadist that owns legal slaves. He forces them to endure only pain, no pleasure, as well as chemical pain for one, three, or five years in exchange for millions of dollars.

Teddy likes to have S&M sex parties and suggests Julie attend his next party as a submissive so she can meet all the possible suspects. Julie reluctantly agrees but only if Rosemary can attend. There Julie sees the sadistic extent that Teddy and his friends will go to legally as long as no permanent harm or damage comes to the submissive.

There are two more murders, each woman suffered longer and longer than the previous. The killers are trying to see how long they can keep the women alive and in pain. Each woman is more beautiful and sexier than the previous.

The dominant killer has met Julie, she is the most beautiful and sexiest woman he has ever seen and he has to make her his ultimate victim; planning on keeping her alive and in pain for months. Julie and Rosemary know she is probably on the killer's radar so now it is a race to catch the killer before he can abduct her and make the rest of her life truly a living Hell.
