Mrs Pembroke wants to spend her final days quietly, but the young neighbours beside her house hold noisy parties night after night. She asks Clara Fitzgerald to intervene, only to discover that the fashionable Bright Young Things next door are unwilling to moderate either their behaviour or the private rivalries beneath it.

When one of the partygoers dies, the dispute becomes a murder inquiry. Clara must move through a circle devoted to speed, novelty and public display, uncovering secrets that place other young people at risk and determining whether the victim was killed by an outsider or by someone within the group.
