Alexandra, Jane and Sukie, divorced and dangerous, revel in their new-found powers. With their ex-husbands reduced to mere mementos - Alexandra's is dust in a jar on a shelf, Jane's hangs among dried herbs and is sprinkled into philtres and Sukie has permanized hers in a placemat - they find their potent longing can stir up thunderstorms and fracture the domestic peace of those who cross them. But when the devilish Darryl Van Home, a charismatic magus of a man, breezes into Eastwick, he entrances the trio, luring them to his mansion where he becomes the evil focus of their sensuous celebrations.
