Description: When affluent New Yorker Joyce Hauptman dies suddenly, the investigator suspects something other than natural causes. Joyce{u2019}s husband, Charles, stands to inherit her wealth and is the obvious suspect, but Detective Lenny Shaw quickly discovers that things aren{u2019}t what they seem. As Charles maintains his innocence, and the influence of his powerful father-in-law intrudes, Lenny is hurled towards a conclusion that is as shocking as it is violent.
