Ross Marteau is the toast of the international art world for his sensualsculptures of rich and famous women. But when a long-term relationshipbreaks up badly, he retreats to his Texas hometown -- only to have hisnewfound peace of mind permanently, and profoundly, shattered.

At the same time, he becomes increasingly aware thatthe enigmati depth he sees in Celeste is as mesmerizing as thefathomless torment he sees in Leda. Soon he's romantically involved withone sist
