Similar to their Ripped From The Headlines movies, the new thriller A Rose For Her Grave follows the story of the notorious serial wife-killer Randy Roth. However, the plot is more about a fearless woman who finally brought Roth to justice.
According to The Futon Clinic, the plot of the thriller is as follows. Shortly after the death of her husband, single mom Cindy (Ramsey) finally finds love again. She marries mechanic Randy Roth (Egglesfield), but soon her wedded bliss turns dark as she finds out another side of Randy.
Despite the pleas of her best friend, Lori (Stause) to leave Roth, Cindy never gets the opportunity. In fact, she drowns during a trip to a lake with Randy and her kids. Meanwhile, Randy is emotionless following her passing, and orders her immediate cremation. He also takes custody of Cindy’s children and tries to collect on her life insurance policy.
