Since childhood Elsie has perceived crimson filaments that appear only between people who have slept together. The visions exposed her father's infidelity while her mother suffered silently, so Elsie vowed to date only men whose heads showed no marks. Seven years later she accepts Lucas, whose head remains blank, but on the eve of their wedding a fresh line connects him to a woman named Tessa. Elsie cancels the ceremony, yet his powerful family surrounds her home and coerces her into the reception under threat of penalties. Dressed in black, she enters the banquet hall, projects surveillance footage, and uses the visible threads to reveal the household's long-concealed secrets, turning the wedding into a public reckoning.
