Rick and Jane have just bought a house in a leafy suburb. This is going to be the first real home Rick has had. He's made a mint through property development - he's done up endless houses, banked the cash and moved on. He met interior decorator, Jane only six months ago through work, and now they are a couple. They decide to do a loft conversion straight away. Rick thinks he's landed on his feet when a chance meeting leads him to hire a builder who worked for him years ago. So begins the familiar nightmare. The endless cups of tea, the out of tune singing, the radio blasting out. Worst of all, are the monstrous turds that one of the builders keeps leaving in their upstairs loo. However, things take a sinister turn when there's a nasty accident and Rick's unscrupulous business practices finally catch up with him.
