A man reads a book about 19th century murderers and finds them strangely familiar. Piquing his interest, he pursues more information from the author. THe author is preparing an exhibit of artifacts related to his research at the local museum, one of them being a daguerreotype of the long dead criminal. Gazing into the face, it is as though he is looking at a mirror... the image is identical to his own, and the memories that flood his mind are too vivid to ignore. Can he be the reincarnation of this 19th century murderer?
