The Death of Bunny Munro follows the story of Bunny Munro, a man who sells beauty products and the scent of adventure to the lonely housewives of England's south coast. After the tragic death of his wife, Bunny finds himself set adrift, taking to the road one last time with his young son, Bunny Junior, in tow.
As Bunny swaggers from door to door, hawking his wares and feeding his insatiable libido, the nine-year-old Bunny Junior waits in the car. There, he seeks solace in the comfort of his mother's ghost, all the while witnessing his father's self-destruction.
Haunted by his own appetites, jealous husbands, and a sinister serial killer clad in a devil suit, Bunny Munro becomes a desperate man skirting the precipice of disaster. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that he's on a collision course with his own mortality.
