An abandoned red canoe rests on Seymour Rock, where the Saugatuck River meets Long Island Sound, with the elegantly dressed corpse of a woman inside. Two years after leaving her position at the US Attorney’s Office, Nora Carleton has become lead counsel at Saugatuck Associates, the largest hedge fund globally. The move to Westport, Connecticut, was meant to provide a better environment for her daughter, Sophie, and she enjoys her new colleagues, especially Helen, who recruited her for her investigative skills. However, when Helen is brutally murdered, Nora suspects she may have gotten too close to someone hiding secrets within the firm. Unexpectedly, she becomes the prime suspect in the investigation. To clear her name, Nora enlists her former colleagues, Mafia investigator Benny Dugan and attorney Carmen Garcia, to find the evidence Helen discovered before her death.
