The House of Adam plot
Adam, a sympathetic hermit living quietly in a small town, is brutally murdered by a trio of religious fanatics. His lover, a closed private detective, now has to live with the feeling of guilt and grief for keeping his recently deceased loved one isolated and hidden in their cozy but secluded cabin. Concerned about the reaction of his colleagues in the police force, he keeps his lifestyle a secret, hiding his real feelings deep inside. One day, ironically, he becomes a victim of his own two-sided values. This results in a tragic and traumatic ordeal when he is forced, as the first step of the case he must solve, to exhume the corpse of the victim, his former lover.
