The dirty, seaside town of Cape Town holds a secret.
Katy Parkes has the perfect life working as a fishmonger in the city and partying with her noble girlfriend, Polly Parker.
However, when she finds a ribbed sausage in her cellar, she begins to realise that things are not quite as they seem in the Parkes family.
A bar mitzvah leaves Katy with some startling questions about her past, and she sets off to noisy Cape Town to find some answers.
At first, the people of Cape Town are splendid and brave. She is intrigued by the curiously virtuous nurse, May Rockatansky. However, after she introduces her too hard chocolate, Katy slowly finds herself drawn into a web of lust, impersonation and perhaps, even kidnap.
Can Katy resist the charms of May Rockatansky and uncover the secret of the ribbed sausage before it's too late, or will her demise become yet another Cape Town legend?
