      When PI Talba Wallis receives a frantic call from Orleans Parish Prison, she’s shocked to hear from Angie, her boss's lawyer daughter, who has been arrested for drug possession. Angie claims the drugs were planted as retaliation for her activism against Judge Buddy Champagne, the marina owner accused of illegal activities. Talba and her boss, Eddie, are determined to help her. Going undercover as a housekeeper for Judge Champagne, Talba discovers a dysfunctional household reminiscent of "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof," complete with a weak son and a glamorous daughter-in-law, while the judge’s fiancée, the beautiful Kristin LaGarde, adds complexity to the mix. As Talba investigates, she uncovers disturbing details, including a suspicious death at the marina and the judge's connections to bail bondsmen, revealing a web of corruption. When the scandal escalates and Judge Champagne is found dead, Talba is unexpectedly tasked with the investigation. She must uncover whether the judge's death was a political assassination or a result of family betrayal.
