The main character Charles meets a woman named Lucinda on a train and they become attracted to each other. The two meet in a hotel and prepare to have sex when a man breaks into their room attacking Charles and raping Lucinda. They do not report the crime, fearing that their spouses would find out. After the incident, Charles receives a call demanding $20,000 to keep the incident secret and he pays, but later receives another call demanding $100,000. He asks a friend for advice who agrees to help him fight off the blackmailer. They prepare to meet the man but the friend is shot in the car and dies. The blackmailer calls the next day demanding the money and threatening to kill Lucinda and Charles pays, but afterwards, Charles finds out that Lucinda and the blackmailer are a couple working together in a scam. He finds Lucinda in the process of luring another man and bursts into the room. After a fight, Charles kills everyone and gets his money back but is sent to jail for embezzling the money to pay his friend. In jail, Charles finds the blackmailer, who survived the fight, and stabs him to death.
