Laney Montgomery, a nineteen year old college student has one fear and one fear only: Not getting accepted into her dream film program. Soon Laney discovers that there's something out there more fearful with her college goals. 

One night after attending her first college party with her best friend turns not only her world but the whole city's around. 

Two bodies are found dead at the party which appear as a suicide. The police and everyone announce it as a  suicide but Laney doesn't believe it to be true. Not only because she knew both of the victims but because of how they were found and the clues that surround them.

With no other choice to find the real murder, Laney teams up with Wesley, who's rather unpleasant to be around all of the time.  One thing they have in common is the mysterious death of a close friend. 

If the two victims didn't take their lives than who did this? Perhaps their curiosity could get them killed the same way their friends were.
