When Dan and his friends fly into a small Wyoming town to film scenes of a project they're working on together, they stay at Dan's parents' old summer house on Walter Lake. Once they arrive, Dan feels something strange at the lake. His sense of home, the smells and sights seem to have vanished. When the appearance of a Lake Angel named Whisper comes to haunt him, he discovers that another Lake Angel has been kidnapped and is trapped in one of the houses surrounding the lake. Whisper can't leave the lake, so he asks Dan to find the Angel and bring him back. Seduced by Whisper's beauty, Dan accepts the mission, but he fears the power and strength of a person or thing with the capability of capturing a Lake Angel and keeping him hidden away.
Emerging from the water was a beautiful man with sun kissed skin, an abundance of brown hair flowing to the back of his neck, a swimmer's build beyond perfection, pectoral muscles so big they appeared to be floating in the water, innocent hazel eyes with long angelic eyelashes, and lush lips. Each stroke he made was as graceful and gentle as the sound of a wave crashing onto the shore.
"I didn't know there was anyone else out here," Dan said.
"I'm a quiet swimmer," he said in a voice so delicate that Dan felt a rush of tingles hit the back of his neck.
"What's your name?" Dan asked.
"I'm Whisper," he said. "I'm the one who makes every sound in the lake as delicate and soft as they are now," he added. "I want to ask you a favor."
"What kind of favor?" Dan asked.
"I wanted to ask if you could find someone for me. His name is Sensory," Whisper said. "Sensory has been gone for over a week and has taken mortal form. He's in that house," Whisper said, pointing directly at Judy Manor.
"If you know where he is, why don't you get him?" Dan said, surprised that Whisper wasn't smart enough to think of that first.
"I can't leave the lake," Whisper explained.
"So all you want me to do is go there and find out what Sensory is doing in Judy Manor?" Dan asked.
Whisper nodded. "Find a way to get inside the house and look for him," he said. "But It won't be easy," he added.

The door opened to reveal a man with white hair combed back, flawless tan skin, dressed in a royal blue robe and nothing else. His eyes were marble black and he was younger than Dan had expected.
"I'm Professor Perry Van," he said, offering to shake hands.
Dan had a suspicious feeling growing in the pit of his stomach. The man greeting him was scantily clad, good looking, and immediately offered him alcohol, but Dan wasn't going to be seduced by an older man easily. He entered the manor, and Perry closed the door behind them. He led Dan into the living room which was dark with black and scarlet colors in the rugs and drapes, in the color of the walls, and in the sofa and furniture. Books lined the shelves between the curtained windows, and the only lights in the room came from the antique lamps.
"Welcome to my home. I don't usually have guests," Perry said, opening a bottle of cognac and pouring himself a glass. "You must stay awhile. You can take a shower after your swim in the lake. I was just about to take a swim myself," he said as he pointed out his bathrobe and slid his hand along the edge, revealing a bit more of his chest than necessary.
Dan had older men come on to him in the past, so he knew what Perry was up to. The strange part was, even though there was something not quite right about the man, Dan found Perry charming and sexy.
"A shower sounds good," Dan said.
A huge grin filled Perry's face. "Let me show you the master bath," he said, sliding out of his chair.
"It's beautiful," Dan said, hypnotized by the bathroom's allure.
Perry stepped into the room. "Can I get you anything before your shower?"
Dan turned his head. "I think I've got everything I need in here already," he said.
Without telling Perry to leave, Dan pulled the Velcro fly of his swim trunks and undid the string. Perry moved in closer and looked at himself in the mirror above the sink, and began playing with his hair. Dan noticed Perry's reflection in the glass of the shower. It was clear that he was pretending to fix his hair while he waited for Dan to strip. Dan dropped his swimsuit to the floor, revealing himself to Perry.
Perry watched as Dan entered the shower. As the water poured down on Dan, Perry undid the sash of his robe, revealing his body underneath. His chest hair was trim, his skin tan all over, with his most private area a nice golden color. His stomach was flat and smooth, his legs thick and toned.
Dan could feel Perry disrobing behind him. Perry stepped into the shower slowly, closing the door. Dan lathered his body down to his groin area, and it was then that Perry took the bar of soap from him and reached around to lather the rest of his guest. Perry let out a groan as soft as a whisper, as Dan watched the hands of his seducer.
"How do you live out here without this?" Dan asked.
Perry nibbled at Dan's ear, "Good things come to those who wait," he whispered against Dan's ear.
