When Dr. George Weiss, the expert witness in a medical malpractice case, is bludgeoned to death in his Nashville hotel room, the law firm of Mason, Bradshaw, and Colson hires former singer-songwriter Elana Grey of Aaron and Associates to investigate the crime and keep the police from uncovering the firm's secrets.

Elana has secrets of her own and they surface as she attempts to find the killer and steer the police away from Tony Colson, a senior partner in the law firm.

With the help of her husband, Nashville promoter and part-time investigator, Jonah Aaron, Elana's efforts lead her towards a potential showdown with someone far more dangerous than a cold-blooded killer — her own narcissistic mother.
