After returning from her honeymoon in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, in 1970, Detective Samantha Gates is immediately thrown into the mysterious murder of a Monroe businessman. At first glance, it seems to be a likely solvable crime, sussing out the suspects and finding the killer. As she and police chief Brandon Johns launch into the investigation, her new husband, Drew, is conflicted by the amount of time the case is taking away from him. Is the reality of being married to a dedicated and focused police detective in hot pursuit of a killer more than he bargained for? After they narrowed down their prime suspects to five, the case gets frustrating and bogged down. The murdered business owner, Ray Puls, had a disagreeable reputation of shady business practices and wasnt well-liked. The family soon becomes the target of the investigation, and their collective alibis for the time of the murder seem too convenient. Are they circling the wagons to protect themselves, or are they all innocent of the crime of murder? Is the real killer still out there hiding in the shadows? These nagging questions haunt the chief and Sam as they fight through a quagmire of unanswered questions, trying to get to the truth.
