James Alden is a washed-up journalist who lands the interview of the decade. Natalie Varga is suspected of murdering her rich Hungarian husband and she makes James an offer: find the killer and she'll give him the exclusive story everyone wants.

Natalie tells James that she has just seen her supposedly dead brother, Oliver, who went on the run after borrowing from drug dealers in Budapest. James ignores a final warning to stop his investigation as he grows closer to Natalie, and he reveals the reason he gave up his career in journalism.

James has a terrifying flight to Budapest. Arriving in the city, he tracks down people from Natalie's past that can help him get closer to the truth. An ominous warning from Natalie's ex is ignored by James, which leaves him cornered.

Everything James thought he knew has been turned upside down. He returns to London to pursue the killer, but he has been fired from his job and no-one believes his stories of what happened in Budapest.
