After four years of nursing, beautiful twenty-five-year-old Rachel Taylor yearns for a career change. She learns that the local prison is in dire need of a new hangman. With no man willing to assume the role, she applies for the job only to be told by the warden that he is in no mood for jokes and tells her to get lost. She knows he is desperate and persists until he gives in. She conceals her identity and gives him only her first name, which he assumes is an alias. With no previous experience, she takes a crash course on the internet with the help of her best friend. Miraculously, her first execution is successful, and she is paid $ 2.000.00. A prison employee secretly recorded the execution. The entire incident is now circulating on social media and has gone viral. Within twenty-four hours, she is on the front page of every newspaper in the country. An army of reporters descends on the warden with questions he cannot answer. The governor freaks out when he sees the warden on TV telling the whole world he has no idea who she is. She goes on to become a full-time executioner. During her five years on the gallows, 136 convicted murderers meet their fate at the end of her rope.

A major network offers the prison a million dollars for the exclusive filming rights to every execution she performs and shows after 12 p.m. on what becomes known as the midnight channel. Because she is a female executioner, she is commonly referred to as an Executrix. She comes from a wealthy family with two sisters and three brothers. Fearing her family will disown her if her identity becomes known, her life is one of never-ending stress. Her mother refers to the executrix as "That horrible woman who should burn in hell, not realizing that the horrible woman she so despises is her own daughter.
