Dugal Mikes, a celebrated actor, says "goodbye to all that," and withdraws to his favourite island with his better half, herself a famed diva. Eager for a bit of peace and quiet, Dugal is not prepared to stumble upon a slew of passionate letters written by the previous proprietor of his retirement estate, Archidux LS, a notorious maverick and universal spirit. In homage, Dugal publishes his find, not expecting backlash, but that's what he receives. Now, this once idyllic spot becomes a grim setting as various zealots howl over the desecration of their icon and threaten Dugal's life and reputation. Dugal does not understand why this discovered stash of letters- seemingly harmless old manuscripts- could cause such uproar. Do these written declarations of love actually hide a cryptic message that threatens to subvert established values? The more Dugal falls under the spell of his predecessor, the deeper he gets entangled in a power struggle for the man's spiritual heritage, while wrestling with his own perspectives and self-perception.
