//WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE/
The Internet...a world without rules, without boundaries. Where you can be anyone you want, whoever you aren't.And it's all just a click away....
Riley Tulane is a member of a chat room called The Six. Made up entirely of acting students, this group -- four guys and two girls -- decides to meet at a secluded Vermont inn before heading to a prestigious drama seminar in New York City.
Nothing is more idyllic than a long winter weekend in the Green Mountains. Then suddenly, one member of The Six is found dead. How far can one actor's ambitions for stardom go? Will the curtain fall on this weekend before another person dies?
Different people in different places. The one thing they have in common is a new address on the Internet: danger.com. Where all your fears come true.
