[2][3] In Charthurst Green, Kent in 1966, Pauline Cox accompanies her boyfriend Mike Robins to a village cricket match in which he is playing, but becomes bored and wanders away.
She later meets his half-witted assistant Ewen who was seen earlier watching Pauline with Mike and upsets her when he proceeds to kill a rabbit in her presence.
Making her way back to the match, Pauline is waylaid by the simple-minded Ewen as she crosses an apple orchard; when his advances become violent, she tries to fight him off while he sexually assaults and strangles her which ultimately leads to her death.
