Graduation reunions can be exciting, but not for Marla Lindberg, who never fit in with her classmates.

Now, she's surprised to receive an invitation to a class reunion at the romantic 'Chat in the Mist' in the Alps. Skeptical, she goes anyway. Upon arriving late at the snowy mountain hotel, she finds all the rooms occupied, used dishes on the table, a fire burning - yet no one in sight.
