- Synopsis
When Lady Alkmene reads in the newspaper about a mysterious death, she is convinced it is connected with the glamourous Broadway star, Evelyn Steinbeck, who recently came to town and is suddenly heiress to a large fortune.
Alkmene is determined to dig into Ms. Steinbeck's past, but her investigations are hampered by an infuriatingly opinionated reporter. Raised with a grudge against anybody with privilege, Jake Dubois is determined to prove the 'debutante detective' is out of her depth.
Working as much against as with each other in their pursuit of the killer, Alkmene and her new-found 'ally' uncover an explosive mixture of passion, greed and revenge that pushes their resolve and survival skills to the limits.
Can they rely on each other, despite their differences, to catch a clever killer before he catches them?
