- Synopsis
- Julie Sawyer hits a handsome white dog with her car one night and then nurses it back to health. One day, the theretofore mild-mannered dog saves her life by viciously attacking and killing a rapist who breaks into her home. Lucy discovers that the dog has been trained to attack black skin. She consults an animal trainer, Carruthers, who urges her to have the dog exterminated. But a maverick black trainer, Keys, who has tried before to break the training of such dogs but never succeeded, steps in.
