With recent blockbusters like “Underworld” and “Aftermath” under his belt, award winning director/actor Brad Armstrong brings us another gem that was up for several nominations at the recent AVN awards. In this story of a big time high end escort named Holly (Asa Akira) we get tossed into a web of sex, lies, deception, murder and more. It is a dramatic story of an escort caught in the middle of an explosive turn of events that could ruin a lot of people. Get ready for a quite aq ride with this very sexual and engrossing film.

The film begins with Ken (Xander Corvus) driving along, smoking a joint and then getting pulled over by the cops. After getting frisked, they find a bag of pot in his SUV. At this point we get a narrative from Holly saying what a bad day this would turn out to be because of who he is. Then we switch to Holly riding in the back of a limo and getting it on with James Deen in a very intense scene that even includes a wine bottle! Once the deed is done Deen, who is a big time star, gives her an envelope with lots of cash for her services and leaves the limo.

We get more narrative from Holly explaining what she is, how she operates and the kind of well heeled people she deals with. She takes a call from a prospective client but he obviously doesn’t fit her pay scale. Then she gets a call from Steven (Kurt Lockwood), who is a big time writer who uses her services not just for sex but story ideas and of course this leads to Holly and Steven getting it on in his plush pad. We get more narrative from Holly about how these men keep their dalliances very secret and that brings us back to Ken. Before his lawyer arrives he starts to spill the beans to two detectives (Samantha Saint and Barrett Blade) about this very private club for the elite and about Holly. That’s when things begin to unravel and Detective Kelly (Samantha) decides she can go undercover and get the goods on everyone Her partner and her boss don’t really like the idea, but she convinces them her plan will work. Our detective has no idea what she is in for.

So she devise a way becomes friendly with Holly who falls for the ruse and takes her under her wing in becoming an escort. Once she is in and keeps reporting back to superiors all the ground work is laid out for the big bust and arrests. Detective Kelly becomes so embroiled in what takes place that she goes above and beyond in her undercover role. She gets very sexually involved at posh residences with Holly and some very sex hungry studs. As always Armstrong makes sure there are some orgy scenes in the film and they are sizzlers. There is a lot more that takes place in this action packed film that we’ll leave for you to enjoy.

This is another solid effort from Armstrong with great casting, plenty of action, plenty of hard core sex and a good storyline. The cinematography captures the grit and the sexuality of the goings on beginning to end. It is an excellent couples feature that offers up big turn ons and plenty of good entertainment. Be sure to check this one out.
