Rebecca Schwartz is nonplussed when she learns that Chris Nicholson, her law partner and best friend, is a suspect in a murder case. But that's not the half of it, as Chris says she has an alibi but is not telling what it is. What could be so shameful you can't even tell your best friend? To her amazement, Rebecca finds it's not just her partner who's been leading a secret life. The victim, dashing critic Jason McKendrick, had his own secrets to hide. One thing Rebecca knows with certainty: she has to shake some skeletons from closets, and fast, or Chris is going to prison.
