What do a brilliant safecracker, a failed aspiring actress who now prostitutes herself on the streets of Los Angeles, a mysterious naked drifter and a group of Iranian terrorists have in common? They are all part of a superior scheme described in an ancient scroll and each one must accomplish their respective fates, which could or could not culminate in the death of millions of innocent people. God's plans can be bizarre or misguided, especially if you're an atheist like Mary Lorath, a prostitute whose life is completely transformed after she meets a mysterious man and inadvertently turns into the pivot of a scheme for mass destruction perpetrated by Islamic radicals. Along with her, a charming jewel thief becomes involved in this mystical con- spiracy, obsessed with the parchment and trying to get his hands on a suitcase con- taining a million dollars. Meretrix is a sarcastic adventure that explores themes such as sex, religion, materialism, egolatry and faith, showing that reconciling these elements is an ar- duous task, and that the unlikely can be real.
