A successful London banker appears to have it all until he flees his high-priced apartment in the middle of the night, wearing only pajamas and claiming his life is in danger. His four best friends set out to discover whether their friend has had a breakdown or if, in fact, someone is after him.

Thirtysomething Fleur Bonner has often wished for what she can''t have. To be thinner. Taller. To be more successful.

And why? And will her cell door lock forever or will she find her freedom once again?
