Southerner Jake Perry is a successful, married comicbook artist living the good life in New York in the 1930s. But, bored and restless, he falls under the sway of Bellerophon Cawdor, a 'Bohemian love-cultist' in Greenwich Village, and the sadistic, erotic world he offered. Jake can't let go, pulling his dutiful high-society wife, the beautiful daughter of a wealthy family, into his tragic obsession with forbidden pleasures, trapping them both in a whirlpool that could destroy their lives.
