A 'psycho-sexual thriller of betrayal and revenge' written by scientist Carl Djerassi (the man credited with advancing the oral contraceptive pill) that features real life post-war characters such as Walter Benjamin, Theodor Adorno and Hannah Arendt. The trio must deal with having to face the lies, jealousies and sexual predispositions they have kept hidden from public once a mysterious woman turns up to test them.
