Anna Morgan, the heroine of the book "Journey into Darkness," spends her life in remote hotels and rented rooms, working as a chorus girl in a traveling theater troupe in England. In her eyes, England appears gray and depressing compared to her childhood in the West Indies.

Anna will fall in love with a much older man, and her life will be marked by this relationship. She will encounter the underworld of London, the "special" clubs, the deceitful parties, and the world of paid love.

Trying to resist the sexual exploitation she experiences from others, she uses her own sexuality as a weapon in a trend of self-destruction and internal violence.
