Description

A retired army major, Carl Keating, is jolted from a quiet life of travel plans by a cryptic letter and a surprisingly generous offer of five thousand dollars. The message, sent by Dr. Norman Hamlin, insists that Keating meet him that night in Long Island, promising something “very important.” Skeptical yet intrigued, Keating abandons his Paris vacation and dives into a bustling, near‑future cityscape of copters and monorails, heading toward a house that glows with an unsettling, almost cinematic aura.

Inside, a sleek, book‑lined study leads him to a polished table where a young, flamboyantly confident man named Stewart Ferguson waits. Ferguson, a figure notorious in media for his scandal‑laden liaisons with video actresses, hints at a hidden operation that blurs the line between entertainment and exploitation. As Keating listens, the stakes of the encounter become clear: he’s being drawn into a world where fame, power, and secrecy intersect, and his decision could pull him deeper into a mystery that threatens to upend everything he thought he knew.
