Horace’s new wife Sybilla appears to be the perfect housewife. If by “perfect” you mean a perfectly acquiescent milquetoast saint. Horace? He doesn’t buy it. Soon, he feels trapped by her kindness, helpfulness, and—the horror—improved food. The only solution? Murder. But when his plan is thwarted, Horace becomes convinced that Sybilla is blackmailing him with a copy she’s made of his tell-all diary. Will “love” conquer all in this truly bewildering melodrama?
