Dagger of Adultery concerns a desperate and haunted protagonist, Dwayne Love, a world class music icon. From the deck of their Malibu beach estate, what seemed to be the perfect family is destroyed in one harrowing night of murder and mystery. Upon the horrific discovery of the slashed and bloodied body of his wife, Love realizes he has been framed as the prime suspect. In a state of confusion and frenzy, Love is forced to become a fugitive, and desperately attempts to unravel the mystery of his wife's slaying, while ultimately proving his innocence. Love's turbulent quest leads him across three continents in search of the murder weapon, a fabled relic known as the Dagger of Adultery. "Whoever receives the dagger has surely committed an act of adultery and therefore their family will all die by its serpentine blade". Love's pursuit guides him from the murky back alleys of Prague, to a perilous ship hoarding criminals, and then onto the mystical shores of the island of Dr. Brigil, and into the arms of a sensuous young woman. After suffering horrific burns, Love awakens in a decrepit gothic hospital in Rio de Janeiro, his memory erased by the harrowing and mysterious incident that committed him there. The shifting timeline unfolds over what begins as a fractured series of dreams. Love is fraught with demons of his own making, and relies on the support of a priest locked in a crisis of faith, who becomes drawn into Love's struggle by his own need for atonement. Betrayal and desperation play out against an intricate backdrop of dream and memory as crimes, real and imagined, are brought to bear. And the unlikely duo proceed to unlock a reality far more unlikely and extraordinary than the visions that haunt Love.
