The great adventure one of the richest industrialist in Swiss, Count Henry McClain. Henry, a successful but eccentric businessman, is living in his countryside French Chateau beyond his wildest imagination. His greatest attachment other than his mother, to whom he was profoundly devoted, was the young woman, Aphrodite. She wasn't the only one of his devotions, but she was the best one. But peering into his unsinkable life he was a gambler, more precisely, the women-gambler, and often he was having fantasy beyond reason. He doesn't remember how many broken hearts passed through his life, and how many times his heart was broken either. Since he thought life is beyond reason he just tried to fill his destiny and then enjoy life almost to the fullest. He thought his unbreakable life was like a journey or rather like a fatal rendezvous with a devil. He followed the rules which his great world had established for him. At least he thought he did. But even though his life was sinking like a lost decaying ark, and there was no one around to save him. Then he drowned with the last sip of fresh air in his lungs. One more thing, he had a fear of spiders, and there was that unforgettable moment which he will always remember because his splendorous and romantic cast of life drama finally would close-up and forever with the last kiss of a spider. The other his stories are briefer symbolic flashes that have an agenda outside themselves and seem excessively mannered in form and passion. Finally life left him alone in the middle of his vivid golden age. Now in the calmness of mind he meditates and seeks the counsel of his higher-self. He is looking for his inner-self hidden in the depths of his mind, and wants to unlock it. His self-confidence dropped together with his magic luck and it became the hidden mystery since on. What did really happen to him? Perhaps he would never know.
