The year is 2045. As a historic winter storm slams into her city, New York detective Jacquelyn "Jack" Irons learns her marriage is over and seeks shelter in the closest hotel. Tonight, there's a killer stalking the high society guests of the opulent Bradbury Hotel, and in these white-out conditions there's no help on the way. With no-one to trust - human or robot - Jack aims to catch the killer before the sun rises and before her own past catches up with her.
