SYNOPSIS Julian Kay is a highly paid gigolo in Los Angeles. As a favour to a friend, Leon Jaimes, he
agrees to an assignment with a married couple, the Rymans, which takes a sado-masochistic
turn. He also becomes involved with Michelle, the wife of a Californian senator. When Mrs
Ryman is murdered, suspicion falls on Julian. The rich woman who could provide him with
an alibi refuses to acknowledge him, and Julian realizes that he has been framed. He is
imprisoned, and his position looks hopeless until Michelle defies her husband and commits
herself to Julian's defence, finally convincing him of her love.
