A newly married couple with a flair for the macabre buys a Queen Anne-styled manor that echoes their gloomy insides. Once the pair met and committed themselves, both knew there was no way to escape from the other-even in death.
Conrad and Elizabeth Fleischer, their surname meaning butcher, are beautiful and only find that they need each other to satisfy their sliver of a desire to be social. They seldom leave their beloved manor that is occupied by their united souls. Though Elizabeth finds she depends much more on her husband, he needs no one, and his unusual job as a hit man underscores his belief. Conrad forces Elizabeth to question what role the legal system has in executing revenge. Do families of victims feel vindicated after the legal process has concluded, or would they rather have a brutal avenger snuff out those who prey on the innocent?
After a particularly gruesome job committed by the Fleischers, the police make an appearance and abruptly end what the couple had just begun...a loving marriage brimming with the stench of death.
