A few days after Valentine's day, a woman's body is found discarded in the tallest tower of a corporate compound near Los Angeles. Killing Mercy recounts the events and encounters that culminated in her death. It is a psychological examination about the worst-case scenarios in interpersonal relationships. It is neither a police procedural nor is it a whodunit. Rather, it is a tale about rats in an overcrowded cage and a focused study of their interactions over the course of six months. Killing Mercy is a tragicomedy for adults about how the complexities of the human mind neither make us immune to being cruel nor do they guarantee happy endings.
