Friends and family are invited to the wedding of Jules Keegan, a magazine editor, and Will Slater, the host of a popular survival reality show called "Survive the Night", which is taking place at an island off the coast of Ireland. The novel begins the night of the wedding, when a storm hits the island and causes a blackout; the lights come up to reveal that one waitress has found a dead body. Moving backward and forward through time, and cutting between the perspectives of various characters, the guests arrive on the island, which is owned by Aoife, a wedding planner, and her husband Freddy, a chef. Hannah and her husband Charlie are guests of Jules, as Charlie is her childhood best friend, but Hannah is suspicious of how close the friends are and retreats to a cave, where she meets Jules's younger half sister, Olivia. The other guests include Will's best man, Johnno, and his ushers, Femi, Angus, Duncan, and Peter, who all attended the same boarding school. Each of the guests is hiding a secret, which is revealed throughout the course of the novel.
