Plot Summary

Nondescript Teddy didn't want to go corporate, but his wife and he agreed it was time to grow up. At his first business conference, he meets Myna, a mysterious workshop leader. Her unusual seminar -- rooted in mystery, myth and masks -- enthralls all who attend. Soon Teddy is under her sway, and in her hotel room. She offers Teddy secret knowledge that will make him as extraordinary as her, if he breaks an ancient taboo, a savage act that could destroy him and his wife. The myth of Theseus and the Minotaur weaves with corporate gamesmanship, in this story of the power of secrets and the labyrinth of human relations.
