Akil, a wealthy butchery mogul, has a very close relationship with his younger brother, Sharm. When Sharm is tragically murdered all signs point to Akil's wife, Madison. With no actual proof Akil turns to alcohol and unleashes his rage on his wife. Madison plots revenge on Akil by creating a poison from her repertoire of poisonous botany, the most lethal: The Blood Orchid. Domestic rivalry ensues in this gripping psychological drama.
