Opis

Set in a still raw post 9/11 New York City, A Bite From The Apple is an edgy, captivating drama about a man who feels compelled to create more adventure in his life. Successful Wall Street executive and family man, R. Wyche Farthing, finds that his quest to fill the perceived void will lead him down a dangerous, deadly road that turns his entire life chaotic. Just as the terrorists have taken their bite from the glorious Big Apple, Wyche finds that, he too, will suffer great sacrifice as a result of his daring foray towards its seedy, unforgiving core. Fueled by post-trauma discontent, Wyche hooks up with Melissa Hill, a young, alluring beauty with a secret. She has come to New York with the hope of satisfying an unusual sexual idiosyncrasy derived from a bizarre childhood experience. Their liaison leads the couple into erotic experimentation, eventually being drawn into an exclusive and surreptitious Manhattan sex club. A killing occurs that propels Wyche into the orbit of a powerful and ruthless German billionaire. This sends him spiraling into additional murder and mayhem, until the only person who can save him is the one he has been betraying throughout; his loyal wife, Jessica.
