The Right Temptation (2000): Cast, Plot & Where to Watch

Derian McCall, a former police officer who hands in her badge and, with a colleague, opens a detective agency, finds her quiet new life disrupted when Anthea Farrow-Smith, the wife of a wealthy investor, asks her to test her husband’s fidelity. Anthea suggests using Derian as bait to uncover whether the husband is unfaithful, setting the stage for a tense and dangerous arrangement.

Derian bumps into Michael Farrow-Smith at a racket-ball club, where she also nabs his Rolex watch and later returns it at his office. He invites her for a drink, and she shares that she used to be a vice cop who worked undercover but now handles insurance claims. He explains that he is married and wants to avoid giving the wrong impression, insisting he isn’t a cheater.
