"Nympholeptic in New York: Pretty lady seeks man of any age, height, weight, color, creed, shoe size, or tax bracket who can..." Delia's humdrum world is defined by the triangle between her apartment and her office, where she props up her boss as he climbs the corporate ladder with his feet firmly planted on her shoulders, and the studio apartment of her father, a never-discovered abstract artist who seems to have committed the entire works of Shakespeare to memory. Needing to contact her globe-trotting sister about a family matter, Delia goes to her sister's apartment and finds her once again absent, the only clue to her whereabouts an enigmatic message fragment on her answering machine tape. Impatient to make sense of the message, Delia seeks someone who can by placing an ad on an Internet dating site, and into her monochromatic world walks a charming stranger. Suddenly, she feels like Dorothy entering the Technicolor realm of Oz as she sallies forth into a new world of love, longing, and stunning surprise. But Delia's search for her missing sister suddenly turns desperate when she discovers her sister may be in grave danger. Suddenly, Delia is in a race against time to solve the one baffling mystery that could save her sister's life: the meaning of the cut-off message on the telephone tape.
