Norman Miller is an unemployed fiction writer who fills his literary work with passages so sexually explicit that no one will publish them. He puts so much emotional energy into the writing that he fails to satisfy his wife, Mixie. Long-suffering, sexually desperate, and concerned for her sanity, Mixie begins an affair with Ted, who may have deeper feelings for her than she wants. An argument leads to murder, and murder leads to disposal problems…just as an unexpected guest shows up with earth-shaking news in this new dark comedy.
