Plot

[edit]

Millionaire and Fontainebleau Miami Beach hotel heir Benji 'Ben' Novack, Jr. (Lowe) marries a stunning stripper, Narcisa 'Narcy' Véliz Pacheco (Vega). But their kinky-infested relationship, soon becomes tarnished by a sea of love and distrust. When Ben's mother, Bernice Novack (Bergen), is found dead in her home in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, her death is ruled out as an accidental fall.[2] Ben’s suspicions surrounding Narcy lead to his demise at the hands of his ruthless wife. As police untangle a web of deviant behavior, Narcy emerges as the prime suspect, and her conviction for orchestrating the murders of both of her husband and mother-in-law soon follows.
