The reckoning

It happened as Mark and Jane were sitting
At the ample table set on the luxirious veranda
Of their fabulous countryside residence

Not a care in the world, munching on petits fours aux lilas cristallisés
Keta salmon caviar on the side
Washed down with a chilled glass of  white wine
And thinking about their upcoming trip
On a friend's forty-five foot yacht

That's when the shot rang out
Killing Jane instantly and putting an end to their
World, built on treachery, deceit, and thievery
