But Gwendolen needs money more than passion, and the self centered aristocrat Henleigh Grandcourt is happy to oblige. As her situation becomes more oppresive, she turns to Daniel for help only to discover Daniel is involved with another woman. Torn between two women, Daniel is forced to look at his own mysterious past and find out who he really is.
