Synopsis:
A television movie, based on fact, about Olympic athlete Kari Swenson who, while training, was abducted and imprisoned by mountain men. After being captured by Don Nichols and his son Dan, with the intent of making her the younger man's wife, Kari Swenson is chained to a tree. During a rescue attempt that results in the death of one man, Dan shoots Kari in the chest, and he and his father flee, leaving her there to die. Sheriff John Onstad coordinates a full-scale search to find Kari and bring the Nichols to justice.
