After an illicit affair with a college coed, Professor Dennis Burke (Peter Coyote) is forced to accept a post at another university. Alone in his apartment, Dennis discovers a collection of erotic letters. Intrigued, he responds and soon finds himself seduced by Lydia (Nastassja Kinski), an escaped murderer, framed by a jilted lover (Udo Kier). Now, Dennis must outwit a relentless detective (Ernie Hudson), and a suspicious student (Fairuza Balk) and determine what to trust - his emotions or the evidence.
