A seemingly typical suburban couple have found a unique way to spice up their marriage - by killing young women.  It started innocently enough, a case of self defense.  Then they had to kill again to cover up the first one.  Then they realized they liked it.  A plan is devised to resurrect a serial killer from the town's past and lay the blame on him.  But this may be working too well; their teenage daughter starts having serious issues concerning her personal safety.  And when a girl thought to have been dead a long time is found to have been killed only recently, our narrator realizes his wife may have her own agenda.  What a debut!  It's dark, twisted and delightfully disturbing.  The original storyline is perfectly executed.  Downing is one to watch.
