Tandy is rudely awakened when the doorbell rings in the middle of the night to their Manhattan Penthouse. Police officers are at the door, and demand to be let in. Inside, Tandy and the cops discover that her parents, Malcolm and Maud, are dead, sprawled in their bed with no sight of foul play. Nothing is missing, and there appears to have been no signs of breaking into the apartment. The only suspects are the Angel children, Matt, and their mother’s live in assistant, Samantha. Being the last one to see them alive, Tandy is their prime suspect.
To clear her name, Tandy decides to investigate their death, even if it means she discovers she did it. You see, Tandy does not remember a certain part of her life, which has been blacked out with medication and therapy. Both parents were perfectionists. Malcolm owned a pharmaceutical company, while Maud ran a hedgefund. Her upbringing has emotionally and mentally shaped the teen to be a ruthless and efficient investigator. As she starts poking around in her parents’ businesses, however, Tandy realizes that anyone could have killed them, from jealous neighbors to their own children. With embezzling charges pending for both parents, there are just too many suspects, and the public is fascinated by the Angel family’s fall from grace. Can the family pull together to discover what really happened, or will it end up tearing them apart?
