Description: While visiting his estranged father in Europe, nineteen-year-old Mark meets Jacques, a young Parisian socialite who performs as a drag queen. Mark is immediately conflicted by the attraction and flees Europe. When Jacques telephones to tell him that their English friend, John, has attempted suicide, Mark accompanies Jacques to England and finds himself falling in love. As John struggles with his manic-depression, Mark and Jacques begin an explosive affair that threatens to engulf them both. When Mark's violent temper erupts, he goes to his Native American grandmother in the Plains, where he works with a shaman and discovers things about himself he never knew were possible. Eventually Mark and Jacques meet up again in London. While their passion is instantly rekindled, Jacques now hesitates to trust his heart. Can people really change?
