Dr. Kate English has everything money can buy: a fortune, a handsome husband, a daughter, and a successful medical career. Her privileged world shatters when someone brutally kills her mother Lily in her own home. Kate calls her estranged best friend Blaire Barrington, who flies in for the funeral. The years of separation dissolve as Blaire comforts Kate in her grief. Then Kate receives a chilling anonymous message: You think you're sad now, just wait. By the time I'm finished with you, you'll wish you had been buried today. Blaire takes charge of finding the killer, but her aggressive questioning alienates Kate's friends and family. Her investigation exposes infidelity and lies throughout Baltimore's elite circles. Anyone could be the murderer: a friend, neighbor, or family member. Kate realizes she's the next target as the killer closes in around her.
