Detectives Jimmy Price (Linden Ashby) and Connie Roos (Suzy Amis) suspect a beautiful young woman, Lena Girard (Stacy Haiduk), has murdered her billionaire husband -- but when Lena inherits the money from his death, she gives it all away to a charity, which rules out her motive. Since Price was a friend of the deceased, he doesn't quite want to believe that Lena killed him anyway. But when he starts to get close to her romantically, his suspicions begin to resurface as he discovers her secrets.
