Joan Rodgers took her two teenage daughters on a dream vacation to the warm sunshine State of Florida. They expected to land in paradise and instead walked into a nightmare of unimaginable evil. The family had recently experienced some dark times when secret past revelations of abuse came to light. The purpose of the family vacation was to put those things behind them while making new warm family memories. The family's fate was set when Jo accepted the offer of a free sunset cruise with a charming and friendly stranger from their home State of Ohio. They never could have imagined they were unknowingly crossing paths with a sadistic rapist and serial killer.
