Deception (2008)

Plot: Milquetoast Jonathan McQuarry does not have and has never had much of a social life. This situation is not helped by his job as a corporate financial auditor, as he does not have what one would consider regular work colleagues, he moving from company to company in his auditing work and only seeing in his work life the same people, who don't really know him, for as long as he is auditing their books. His social life changes when he meets Wyatt Bose, a lawyer at a law firm whose books Jonathan is auditing. The two strike up a friendship. Jonathan secretly discovers that Wyatt is part of a high end sex club, each member who is given a list of telephone numbers of other club members of the opposite sex with who to initiate one-on-one sexual encounters at upscale hotels, no strings or names attached and no conversation about real life. In infiltrating the club using Wyatt's contact list, Jonathan soon meets a club member with who he would like to have a real relationship outside of the club, she who he had a brief encounter with a few weeks earlier and had fallen in love with her at first sight. But in being a member of the club, Jonathan gets unwittingly caught in some criminal activity, namely embezzlement and murder. Jonathan has to stay one step ahead of both the criminal mastermind and the police solely to stay alive.

Alternative Plot: As a corporate auditor who works in a number of different offices, Jonathan McQuarry (Ewan McGregor) wanders without an anchor among New York's power brokers. A chance meeting with charismatic lawyer Wyatt Bose (Hugh Jackman) leads to Jonathan's introduction to The List, an underground sex club. Jonathan begins an affair with a woman known only as S (Michelle Williams), who introduces Jonathan to a world of treachery and murder.
