...week later, on Jan. 7, Lewinsky was riding with Vernon Jordan to see his hand-picked lawyer to swear out an affidavit denying a sexual relationship with Clinton.

...plans are in motion, the trio relocates to Venice, an old, seductive city well-suited to falling in love but also rather treacherous in its dark, decaying moodiness.
