A musician is torn between his perfect wife and a young actor in an unconventional, inescapable love triangle. Thirty-year-old Kent McKutcheon has come to Atlanta with little ambition beyond his earnest desire to grow up and be a good person. But after a year of contented, stable existence with his Mennonite wife, Maggie, a defense attorney with a passion for social justice, Kent cannot quiet his longing for Paul, the lover who abandoned him three years before. When an accidental meeting revives their affair, the infatuation theyve kept private soon threatens to destroy the public persona each man has created. Paul a talented acting student is unhappily bound to an older, ailing college professor and is slowly growing weary of the excesses of gay nightlife. A former wild child, he now craves the sense of family and stability that Kent and Maggie appear to share. Frustrated with Kents guilt-ridden angst and repeated efforts to end their relationship, and eager to find the love and comfort that seem otherwise unavailable in his world, Paul pushes closer to Kents marriage, ultimately developing a fixation on Maggie. In a single night that slips out of control, the volatile mix of emotions leads to murder, and all three characters are suddenly more involved with each others lives than they could have foreseen. And none can hope to escape unscathed.
