Joshua Green's talk show has stormed to the top in Irish TV, providing him and his beautiful wife Soraya with an enviable lifestyle. Soraya is blissfully happy with Joshua, two toddler children and her teenage stepson Lee. The flies in the ointment are her well-heeled parents' contempt for her husband, and Lee and Joshua's troubled relationship.

The show's researcher Brooke Radcliffe considers herself a moral person, so why is she having an affair with a married man? When the network's new boss, Guy Burton, takes an interest in her, she is flattered but cautious. Perhaps she is underselling herself?

The show's producer Kim Davenport feels no guilt about exploiting guests' emotions for higher ratings. That's what makes a talk show tick, after all. But then a whispering campaign starts, with accusations about the callous treatment of guests on the show. As the hate campaign gathers pace, details of Joshua's life that Soraya never knew emerge.

Kim realises that somebody is out to ruin everything she and Joshua have worked for. As her career and Joshua's idyllic life unravel, they struggle to identify their enemy. But time is running out.
