What building doesn't have secrets? How much does anyone know of what goes on behind their neighbour's doors? On a hot June day, grief-stricken Edward arrives in Paris hoping that a stay in a friend's empty apartment will help him mend.

Foley L. The Hunting Party
During the languid days of the Christmas break, a group of thirtysomething friends from Oxford meet to welcome in the New Year together, a tradition they began as students ten years ago. For this vacation, theyve chosen an idyllic and isolated estate in the Scottish Highlands--the perfect place to get away and unwind by themselves.

But after a decade, the weight of secret resentments has grown too heavy for the groups tenuous nostalgia to bear. Amid the boisterous revelry of New Years Eve, the cord holding them together snaps, just as a historic blizzard seals the lodge off from the outside world. Two days later, on New Years Day, one of them is dead. . . and another of them did it. Keep your friends close, the old adage says. But how close is too close? DONT BE LEFT OUT. JOIN THE PARTY NOW.
