In a darkly humorous and thrilling exploration of vengeance and grief, a journalist must unravel a twisting story of vigilante justice amidst her own personal tragedy. In modern-day Newfoundland and Labrador, journalist Jacky Careen struggles to find meaning in her work and life after her sister Mia becomes a victim of sexual cyberviolence and later, takes her own life. As Jacky continues to report local news, dark karmic parallels begin to emerge: a man known for trolling victims of car accidents drives off a cliff, a homophobe dies in a closet, an incel who refers to women as trash falls into an illegal dumping zone. At first, Jacky believes only she notices these coincidences, but as the deaths continue, Jacky must confront the story unraveling before her.
