From high atop Wall Street, Michael Farrow-Smith (Kiefer Sutherland) views the world from a safe and commanding distance. Private detective Derian McCall (Rebecca DeMornay) is hired by Anthea (Dana Delany), Michael's jealous and scheming wife, to take an intimate look into that world. But when the observer gets too close to the observed, a torrid love triangle leads to a twisted trap of fear and manipulation. Derian is everything Michael wants but she doesn't realize what he's after until she's holding the smoking gun. In the end, they will discover if it's possible to resist The Right Temptation.
