Yasmin and U seem like the perfect couple. She's a scriptwriter and he's a magazine editor who has a knack for tapping into the latest trends. One evening, however, U confesses to Yasmin that he's 'having a thing' with a nineteen-year-old violinist - the precocious niece of Yasmin and U's old boss, the formidable Pandora Fairchild. Amelia, the violinist, turns out to be a catalyst for a whole series of erotic experiments that even Yasmin finds intriguing. In a haze of absinthe, lust and wild abandon, all parties find answers to questions they were too afraid to ask.
