Bailey Weggins lives in Manhattan, and is a 30 something true-crime journalist. She's working for a leading celebrity magazine called Buzz and seems to be settling in nicely. Her boyfriend, Beau Regan, couldn't be more gorgeous and she's got a great best friend, Jessie. Yes, life is pretty good.

Then, Beau needs to make a trip out west for the weekend and only tells Bailey at the last minute. Bailey is suspicious that he did that so that she wouldn't ask to accompany him and that has her a bit unsettled. It's mainly for this reason that Bailey accepts an invitation from Jessie to attend a house party at a music mogul's home for that same weekend. She gets even more interested in going when she finds out that supermodel Devon Barr will also be attending. Bailey decides that since she's on her own for the weekend that she may as well go with Jessie to the party.

At first, everything seems pretty exciting. The house is great and the people form an eclectic group of well-known faces. Eventually, the tension is palpable enough to be cut with a knife. It gets even more interesting when Bailey stumbles upon a crying Devon while on a walk in the surrounding woods. In a rather puzzling conversation, Devon states that she needs to get out of there because she's not safe. But then she backs off and claims everything is fine. During the second night, Devon is found in her room dead. It seems, at first, that she died from a heart attack brought on by an eating disorder. Things go from bad to worse when the group of people is stuck in the house during a blizzard. When the roads finally clear, the police appear with questions for everyone. Bailey is the only one that feels Devon's death may not have been an accident.

Back in Manhattan, Bailey is in charge of the story on Devon's death and Beau has also come back into town from his trip. Things are starting to return to normal as Bailey continues to delve into Devon's life. Then, suddenly, someone throws a huge monkey wrench into Bailey's life by threatening her job. On top of that, she has somehow made herself a target of whoever may have meant Devon harm.

True to form, Bailey pays no attention to what she's told by any authority figures. Instead, she continues to keep investigating and putting herself in danger. Will she find the answers before someone puts a stop to her investigation permanently?
