An introvert with a passion for books and chess is about to be lured from his daily routines and into a swirling maze of intrigue and romance.
After glancing outside while working late on a rainy Sunday night, Sam Halley sees the silhouette of a woman through the misty window. She is smoking a cigarette while casually leaning against a streetlight. Sam decides to investigate why she is standing alone in the dark, seemingly oblivious to the cold drizzle. In his mind, the world shifts from color to black and white as he approaches the mysterious woman. It feels as though he is slipping into a bygone era. Her appearance, highlighted by a fedora, trench coat, and a pearl necklace, holds him spellbound. Unknown to Sam, as he continues crossing the street, an invitation to join a treasure hunt for an ancient manuscript worth millions of dollars awaits.
