Synopsis/Details
NOELLE (20s) lives a very sheltered life. Her husband, TYLER (30s), treats her more like hired help than an equal partner in their marriage. When Tyler's half brother, KELLEY (20s), comes home from war with no place to go, Tyler promptly moves him into their home.
Kelley and Tyler are complete opposites. While Tyler is controlling and abusive, Kelley is easy-going and compassionate. It doesn't take long before Noelle and Kelley form a bond. While Tyler is away on business, Noelle and Kelley consummate their relationship.
Upon his return, Tyler immediately notices that something has changed and it doesn't take him long to put the pieces together. The tension builds to a terrifying crescendo when Kelley and Noelle are forced to atone for their actions at gunpoint.
