Tory MP Ivor Tesham has unconventional tastes. And in bored housewife Hebe Furnal he finds someone to share and enact his sexual fantasies. However, one day it all goes terribly wrong.
Ivor plans a special liaison for Hebe’s birthday – a daring sexual adventure. But dangerous games have unforeseen costs and consequences. And when there is an accidental death, scandal and ruin cannot be far behind . . .
How long can a secret stay a secret?
How long will friends protect a reputation?
And how long before guilt catches up with you?
