As 24-hour television - belching out the swaggering voices of American hellfire preachers - competes with dancehall, slackness, and ganja for Jamaican minds, Clarice and Thalbot preach their own conflicting visions. Clarice's visions give her power; Thalbot is at the mercy of every wandering spirit. But when Clarice, under the cover of darkness, 'sins' on the beach, Thalbot alone knows of her fall. He sets out to journey to denounce the prophetess and warn the Ninevite city of its coming doom.

Quest'ultima porta al collo una collana anticamente forgiata dal dio Vulcano per la moglie Venere, un gioiello che possiede il potere d'innamorare chiunque si trovi intorno a chi lo indossa. Il re si lascia irretire nell'incantesimo d'amore ma non rinuncia all'ossessione della sua vita: l'oro, il potere, la ricchezza.
