Overview

Bill Cosey ha modificato in profondità la vita di cinque donne, Christine, Heed, May, Junior e L. Per ciascuna di esse è stato di volta in volta padre, marito, amico, amante, benefattore, custode, carceriere, con una presenza così forte da imporre il proprio fascino e il proprio volere persino dopo la morte. Ognuna delle cinque ne sarà così succube da modificare in base alla storia che ha avuto con Bill i rapporti che intrattiene con le altre. Christine e Heed da amiche del cuore si trasformeranno per decenni in acerrime nemiche, gelose l'una dell'altra; May vivrà sempre a ridosso della follia, in una sorta di tragica lucidità; Junior non uscirà mai dalla dolce trappola tesagli da Bill; mentre L. se la caverà in virtù della sua condizione "privilegiata" di donna di piacere. Nessuna potrà però evitare la catarsi finale.
