Annalisa's mother dies suddenly, leaving her daughter a shocking legacy - a luxurious house of pleasure in steamy New Orleans. This, in turn, sweeps the convent-bred beauty into a maze of corruption and intrigue. It is the charming Chase who seems always to come to Annalisa's rescue. But Chase harbors secrets of his own. Secrets that lead them into a web of horrors that can offer no happy ending.
