Plot Overview
Sarah Jane McKinney is a mild-mannered secretary working for a pharmaceutical business called Judge Pharmaceuticals. She has actually been stuck in the very same position for several years, dreaming of the day she can go up into the executive ranks. The narrative kicks off when Sarah mistakenly eliminates her boss, Mr. Ketchum, while defending herself versus his sexual advances. Surprisingly, this incident causes her promo to a junior executive position.

Nevertheless, Sarah's unexpected climb the career ladder does not stop there. She establishes a taste for murder as a method to pave her path to business fame. Each inadvertent killing sends her up another called of the business hierarchy, as Sarah manages to get rid of anybody standing in her way while appearing innocent and charming to her clueless colleagues.

Sarah's criminal activities stand out of police investigator Bill Malloy, played by Adam Goldberg, who becomes suspicious but slowly falls for her wacky and relatively gentle behavior. In the middle of this, she finds a confidante in an eccentric priest, Father Grisham, to whom she admits her sins, finding solace and guidance.
