Description: Joseph Rubinchik is a nonpracticing Jew, a journalist whose soft-spoken sexual magnetism attracts goddesslike young women as he travels on assignment across Russia. KGB agent Oleg Dmitryevich Barsky intends to stir up riots against the Jews by exposing Rubinchik's myriad seductions.

To aid him, Barsky blackmails the beguiling Anna Evgenyevna to be his investigative prosecutor by threatening to reveal a scandalous affair in her past. But unbeknownst to Barsky, Rubinchik was Anna's first lover and she still has deep feelings for him. Furious at being forced into such a position, Anna instead investigates Barsky, discovering a past that could well destroy the scheming agent, and setting up a triangle that threatens to consume them all.
