Bridget Gregory works as a telemarketing manager in New York City. Her husband, Clay, a physician in debt to a
loan shark, sells pharmaceutical cocaine to drug dealers for $700,000. At home, Clay slaps Bridget after she insults him. She flees their apartment with the money, headed to Chicago. Bridget stops in Beston, a small town near
Buffalo. She has sex with Mike Swale, a local man back from a whirlwind marriage in Buffalo, which he refuses to talk about. Bridget changes her name to Wendy Kroy, and takes a job at the insurance company where Mike works. They begin a relationship, but Bridget refuses to tell Mike about her past. When Mike tells her how to tell if a man is cheating on his wife by reading his
credit reports, Bridget devises a plan based on selling murders to cheated wives. When Mike objects, they argue and he leaves. A
private detective hired by Clay, Harlan, holds Bridget at gunpoint in her car. Bridget tricks him into removing his seatbelt, then purposely crashes her car, killing him. As Harlan was black, she takes advantage of local racism to persuade the police to close the case without investigation. Bridget lies to Mike that she has traveled to Florida to kill Lance Collier, an abusive husband. Instead, she goes to Buffalo to meet Mike's ex-wife, Trish. Upon returning, Bridget shows Mike the money she stole from Clay, claiming it is her cut of the life insurance payout from the Florida job. She tells Mike they can start a life together with the money, but insists he must murder a tax lawyer in New York who is cheating elderly women out of their homes. When he refuses, Bridget forges a letter from Trish saying she is moving to Beston. Desperate to avoid Trish, Mike accepts the job. Bridget swaps the name on Clay's door with the name of the attorney Mike believes he has been sent to kill. Mike enters the apartment and handcuffs Clay. Clay realizes what is happening when Mike mentions Bridget's alias and shows Mike a photo of himself and Bridget together. They form a plan to double-cross her. When Bridget arrives, Clay tries to make amends with her, but she empties a canister of chemical mace down his throat, killing him. She tells a stunned Mike to "rape" her. When he refuses, she tells him she knows that Trish is transgender and goads him with homophobic slurs. While Mike has rough sex with her, she dials 911 and allows them to listen, incriminating Mike. He is jailed for rape and murder, while Bridget escapes with Clay's money and multimillion-dollar life insurance payout. In a limousine, she burns the apartment label, the only evidence linking her to Clay's death. ==Cast==
