Summary
Jigsaw and his apprentice Amanda are dead. But when the news of Detective Kerry's murder becomes public, two seasoned FBI profilers, Agent Strahm and Agent Perez, arrive in the terrified community. There, they assist veteran Detective Hoffman in sifting through Jigsaw's latest grisly remains and piecing together the puzzle. However, when SWAT Commander Rigg is abducted and thrust into a game, the last officer untouched by Jigsaw has only ninety minutes to overcome a series of demented traps and save an old friend. If he doesn't, he will face deadly consequences.
