Naomi and Nathan are lovers and competitors --- nomadic freelancers in pursuit of sensation and depravity. Naomi is in Paris investigating story of Célestine and Aristide Arosteguy: Célestine was killed and partially consumed, and Aristide is the prime suspect. Meanwhile, Nathan contracts a rare STD called Roiphe’s and travels to Toronto to meet the man who discovered the syndrome.
