In Rochester, New York during the 1980s, a series of murders occurs with a chilling connection: each victim's first and last names start with the same letter of the alphabet, and their bodies are discovered in locations that also correspond to an alphabetical sequence ('C' for the first crime scene). Detective Megan Paige is assigned to the case but her obsession with solving it begins to take a toll on her mental health. Despite warnings from her superiors and the FBI's profile of the killer as a spontaneous drifter, Megan remains convinced that the killer is local and meticulous in his planning. When a second murder follows the same pattern, confirming Megan's suspicions, she becomes even more determined to catch the 'Alphabet Killer', but her deteriorating mental state threatens to impede her ability to solve the case.
