Val's curiosity is piqued when she starts to receive unusual messages and requests from an anonymous messenger.
Lester is also cautiously intrigued, as Val starts to fulfill the requests.
A suspected sex club soon becomes media headlines when a former member disappears, and the club is reported to have vacated its last premises.
As the messages persist, Lester and Val start to question whether the anonymous messenger is connected to the clandestine club mentioned in the media, and if there is any link between him or the club and the odd newcomers in the apartment next door.

Excerpt
She sat on the couch and stared across the room. Three men sitting opposite watched her closely. Seemingly daring each other to make the first move. None of them summoned the courage. It was understandable. Her beauty was unsettling.
The kind you’d see in a dream. She had a fixed distant stare. She held her space well. Her presence was elusive. Intimidating. You couldn’t quite describe it. Couldn’t be entirely sure about her. She had a nervousness that made her approachable, but then a look in her eye stopped you cold.
Seated nearby, a bespectacled man also watched the woman.
her husband
Couples and singles moved about the party – chatting, flirting, but this man just sat watching her, pretending not to. If you paid attention long enough, you realised the woman was completely aware he was watching.
maybe he is just her boyfriend
they did arrive at the party together, didn’t they
One of the men whispered to the others that he had seen them at a previous party. That they didn’t ‘play’ on that occasion either.
maybe they were just friends
If the man was her partner and approaching her led to some kind of confrontation, he looked easy enough to handle.
there’s three of us..
But the man watching had a fastidious, aggressive quality that was strangely unsettling. Had a striking face. Was well-groomed and gym fit.
