Carter Page III is a "walker", he escorts the wives of the rich and powerful when their husbands are otherwise engaged and he can do this because he's a well-bred homosexual. When one of his ladies finds her secret lover murdered Carter agrees to be the one who 'discovers' the body, a lie that hurls him into a Machiavellian world of dark malevolent political intrigue with himself cast as the stool-pigeon, a fate he must use all his wits to escape from.
