It could have been just a story, an encounter, or a friendship, but it didn't turn out to be anything quite so simple. Circumstances and influence, position and desire, the road to Hell might be paved with good intentions, this one was awash with sex and money.
Alex Mason and Jack Langdon have more in common then they might acknowledge. They, along with Niomi Asouta, find themselves in a paradisical location on a very important photo shoot for Ardmani. This could make or brake their careers, earn them and the company they work for lots of money. But behind the facade there are darker movements embroiling them all in a murderous whirlwind with dramatic consequences.
