A fortune teller hires a detective to find her missing son, an entomological illustrator. A startling clue leads the detective into the underground worlds of fortune telling and "pleasure" tours. The missing son is a reminder of an old case which ended badly, one he is compelled to reopen. As he investigates both, his life becomes more ghost-like.
