When Grace is found dead, Harrison becomes Rowena's prime suspect. Grace tells Ro that she had just been dumped by the powerful and wealthy owner of the greatest New Yorker advertising agency, Harrison Hill (Bruce Willis), and she was threatening to tell his wife about their affair.
She quits her job in the newspaper and meets with her childhood friend Grace (Nicki Aycox) by chance in the subway. In New York, the investigative reporter Rowena Price (Halle Berry) sees her scoop about a gay senator spiked by her editor. The investigation is boring to begin with but the ending reduces it to nothingness.
It just takes too long, and there isn't more sense of danger. Bruce Willis doesn't have enough natural menace but he does an OK job. It's a lot of whodunnit but I'm not sure if I care. There is way too much boring static computer work with the computer voice. The internet chat is also boring as heck. Halle Berry never really achieves the undercover journalist feel. Sometimes it creates a nice quiet atmosphere but mostly it is slow and boring. She goes undercover with a fake name as a new temp in Hill's company. She ends up dead, and Rowena starts investigating Hill with help from friend co-worker Miles Haley (Giovanni Ribisi). She's a mess and claims to have had an online affair with Hill. Her childhood friend Grace has some information on ad exec Harrison Hill (Bruce Willis). Rowena Price (Halle Berry) is an investigative journalist who quits after her story gets pulled by a powerful politician.
