But their kinky-infested relationship, soon becomes tarnished by a sea of love and distrust. When Ben's mother, Bernice Novack (Bergen), is found dead in her home in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, her death is ruled out as an accidental fall.[2] Ben’s suspicions surrounding Narcy lead to his demise at the hands of his ruthless wife.
