Elizabeth Sheridan (Joanna Pacula), a painter, is married to Cole (Michael Moriarty), who runs a yacht-building company. When Cole becomes abusive, Elizabeth begins an affair with Tony Blanchard (Boyd Kestner), the firm's top designer. When a blackmailer (Peter Onorati) produces incriminating pictures of her and Tony, she and Tony agree to pay, but when murder gets added to the mix, she becomes the obvious suspect.
In a review for Radio Times, David Parkinson said in regards of Joanna Pacula's appearance in the film, "Ever since she hit Hollywood in 1983's Gorky Park, Polish-born Joanna Pacula has been slowly sliding down the rankings. This is a pity, as she's an incredibly physical actress in every sense of the word. She certainly deserves better than this tepid thriller." Parkinson summarized the film's plot as "There's a couple of twists that just about pass muster. But whether you'll consider them worth waiting for, after an interminably slow opening, is debatable."[4]
