Casey Carter was convicted of murdering her fiancé - famed philanthropist Hunter Raleigh III - 15 years ago. And Casey claims - has always claimed - she's innocent. Although she was charged and served out her sentence in prison, she is still living under suspicion. She hears whispers at the grocery store. She can't get a job. Even her own mother treats her like she's guilty. Her story attracts the attention of Laurie Moran and the Under Suspicion news team - it's Casey's last chance to finally clear her name, and Laurie pledges to exonerate her.

When TV producer Laurie Moran investigates an unsolved murder, she becomes entangled in a web of long-buried secrets and begins to wonder if her own life is in grave danger as a mysterious stalker plots revenge.

Famille, amis, futur époux, témoins, demoiselles d'honneur, tous ont accepté de venir et très vite, les rumeurs commencent à circuler : et si la belle Amanda n'était pas celle que l'on croyait ? Quelqu'un pourtant sait ce qui lui est arrivé, bien décidé à ne rien révéler. "Jusqu'à ce que la mort les sépare..."

Ce soir-là, elle était la reine du bal... pour la dernière fois : la riche et mondaine Virginia Wakeling a été tuée lors du gala du Metropolitan Museum dont elle était l'une des plus généreuses donatrices, vraisemblablement précipitée du toit. Par qui ? L'affaire n'a jamais été élucidée. Trois ans plus tard, Laurie Moran, l'enquêtrice phare de l'émission Suspicion, s'empare du cold case. Elle découvre vite que Virginia était une femme très courtisée : un petit ami nettement plus jeune qu'elle, désigné à l'époque comme le principal suspect, mais également de nombreuses personnalités en vue - collectionneurs, promoteurs immobiliers, entrepreneurs... - avaient noué avec elle d'étroites relations. Tous étaient présents lors de la célèbre soirée caritative. Mais qui aurait eu intérêt à se débarrasser de Virginia ?

In a first-time collaboration, "Queen of Suspense" Mary Higgins Clark partners with best-selling author Alafair Burke to deliver a brand new suspense series about a television program featuring cold case murders.

Now Ryan has suggested a new case. Three years ago Virginia Wakeling was found in the snow after being thrown from the museum's roof on the night of its most celebrated fund-raiser, the Met Gala.
