A carefully planned high-stakes business swindle that involves financial deviousness, emotional blackmail, sexual deception, psychological coercion, fraud, forgery, extortion, intimidation, and a murder plot goes terribly wrong. Or does it?

As friends and family celebrate the successful career of Edward Roth Hutton (Corbin Bernsen) and the closing of a very important business contract for Hutton Industries, we learn that far from being his loyal senior partner, Tighe 'Ty' MacArthur (Tony Bingham) is not only sleeping with Hutton's wife, Margot Schugart Hutton (Dana Hardy), but is also conspiring with Margot and a shadowy compatriot, Liam (Jeff Carpenter), to murder his boss and mentor, Hutton.
