This is a story about married adults who, while still in love with their respective mates, rind themselves getting bored. Then an unusual set of circumstances revolutionizes their lifestyles, and forever changes the workings of their marriages.
And while they struggle to come to terms with their new way of life, they also struggle to keep up a facade of respectability — attending the proper social functions, keeping their homes in good order, working at their jobs — while behind the scenes they embark upon a path condemned by many but which, for them, is a new lease on life.
