Nichts schien die College-Freunde Jonathan, Derrick, Keith, Stephanie, Maeve und Alice trennen zu können – bis Alice sich aus Schuldgefühlen das Leben nahm. So steht es jedenfalls offiziell im Polizei-Bericht. Zehn Jahre später treffen sich die Freunde in Jonathans Wochenendhaus in den Catskill Mountains – einem beliebten Feriengebiet der New Yorker –, um seinen Junggesellenabschied zu feiern. Doch dann sind Keith und Derrick plötzlich verschwunden. Die Polizei findet lediglich ihren Wagen, darin eine Leiche mit zertrümmertem Gesicht.

Dix ans après avoir obtenu leur diplôme, cinq anciens camarades de fac se réunissent pour le week-end dans un chalet au beau milieu des montagnes Catskill.

Après le suicide présumé de leur amie Alice, ils sont bien décidés à ne pas laisser survenir un nouveau drame.
