Edie was once the shining star in her 20-something circle in New York's coolest neighbourhood. Like Andy Warhol's muse, the seductive, beguiling and mercurial party girl had the social world in her thrall. Every girl wanted to be Edie, every boy wanted her, and she and her clique treated their slice of the city like a playground. When Edie committed suicide at the end of a long, drunken night, no one could quite believe it. Lindsay has come a long way from being Edie's chief acolyte in the drug-addled world of Calhoun Lofts and her troubled childhood. She carved out a career as a chief researcher on a cool magazine and has a carefully curated life. But when a deeply unsettling video from that wild and terrible, hazy night emerges she starts to wonder if Edie was actually murdered -- and, worse, if she herself was involved. As Lindsay turns detective on her own life, using her expertise as a fact checker to rifle relentlessly through those wild months, she is forced to confront the demons of her past.
