Sanctimony Plot Summary

What happens in Sanctimony from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 12 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 2-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

In a nondescript American town, Tom Gerrick, a Wall Street wunderkind, hides a brutal secret: he is a serial killer. Six victims have had their eyes cut out, six their ears cut off, and three their tongues removed. By the time the fourth tongue victim is found, the killer seems weary of his own success, and the precision that marked his early crimes begins to loosen into a chilling, self-satisfied smirk. The case draws the attention of the town and the attention of investigators who are determined to bring him to account.
