A-list vegan chef Sarma Melngaillis falls for a mysterious charmer who sweeps her off her feet, promising to pay her debts. Is he too good to be true?

Sarma and Anthony flee to Las Vegas, then hide out in the tourist town of Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, where their past finally catches up with them.

Anthony’s claims grow increasingly bizarre — he even convinces Sarma he has magical powers. Over the course of two years, she wires him $1.7 million.

Anthony takes control of the restaurant. While he and Sarma travel around Europe, the employees stop getting paid — and walk out.
