Edgar Allen Poe is undergoing a renewed popularity when a young Baltimore journalist is sent to the provinces by his editor in search of a story likely to satisfy the need for sensation craved by his newspaper's circulation.
What he uncovers is a tale of murder, depravity, sadism and perversion that will not only require sanitising to be made palatable for his editors readers, but will impact upon his life in a way that will leave the charge of it in the hands of another.
An extremely depraved female steeped in the perversities of her great-aunt and a dominant woman from his native Baltimore he has yet to even meet, let alone desire.
A desire, when he does get to meet her, that will end his life as he knows it.
