After a jury acquits Prima Powell of killing her husband, the beautiful TV star remains guilty in the court of public opinion. She hires Dakota Donovan to write her comeback project, but the star and the ghostwriter remain at odds about the direction of the script. Prima agrees to do it Dakota's way-if the writer can find out who really murdered Prima's husband, renowned novelist Braden York. The pressure is on for Dakota to solve a case that LAPD, the prosecutors, and the public all believe was committed by Prima Powell-and take home a much-needed payday for her spec script.
