'In the autumn of 1990, twenty-two-year-old James Douglas finds himself in an idyllic relationship with his young fiancée Jane. But he begins to experience disturbing psychic illusions - phenomena which medical science cannot explain - and when he meets Camille, a narcissistic temptress with a veiled past, he is lured by her increasingly erratic and bizarre behaviour, into a dangerous game: a cerebral tango. In attempting to unravel her motives, James will come to understand his own, but in doing so, his obsession will serve to imperil not only his psychological existence, but his very life as well. Exploring themes of sexual narcissism, conscience, the illusion of free will - and the nature of love - this rich and imaginative allegory by figuratio takes the reader on a psychological adventure spanning two continents and the nightmarish tableaux of a tortured mind.' (Publisher's blurb)
