On a rainy May morning in Oxford, eighteen-year-old Oxford student Tessa Reeves has a close shave with death when Dr Michael Edwards almost runs her over in his scarlet MG. By way of apology, he treats her to a lavish breakfast in a country hotel and over strawberries, steak and champagne, she first experiences his greed - a greed which later culminates in electrifying sex.
Tessa a different world, feels overawed by the pressured mystique of Oxford. But the charismatic Michael - named after an archangel, the conqueror of Satan - boosts her spirits and her status, and fires her own ambition. But after the affair turns sour, Tessa searches with increasing desperation for her lost lover, and later for his surrogate and namesake, the suburban GP, Dr Michael Edwards, with whom she develops a bizarre non-relationship. Love becomes obsession, and her quest for Michael takes over her whole life. On a second fateful May Day the following year, she finds her own fruition in an extraordinary consummation.
