Parti à la recherche du Bouddha d’Or, Clément, informaticien dans une société de jeux vidéo, se retrouve un beau soir dans une cabane d’altitude perdue en pleine montagne en compagnie de cinq parfaits inconnus. Le lendemain matin, on retrouve l’un d’entre eux gisant au pied d’une paroi rocheuse, le crâne défoncé. Bloqué avec ses compagnons d’infortune dans la cabane à cause d’un épais brouillard, Clément découvre dans les affaires du mort un étrange livre écrit de la main même de la victime, un criminologue qui y retrace le récit de ses plus brillantes enquêtes. Une menace de mort tracée sur la page de garde, des ressemblances troublantes entre les personnages du livre (des criminels démasqués par la victime) et ses compagnons d’infortune éveillent dans l’esprit de Clément un terrible doute. L’un des randonneurs aurait-il assassiné le criminologue par vengeance ? Et s’ils étaient tous coupables ? Et si le cauchemar ne faisait que commencer ?
