They say keep your friends close and your enemies closer—but when your enemies are the Sterlings, that old adage may just prove deadly.

It’s 2004 and former reality TV star Maya Miller has just married the most eligible bachelor on the planet: Colin Sterling, of the globally famous Sterling family whose history of aristocratic titles and land holdings rival a British royal and whose media empire is comparable to the Murdochs. To some, Maya represents the American dream. To others, a gold digger. But when Colin’s cousin Arianna, the heiress to the family’s immense fortune, is found murdered, Maya is thrust into the spotlight: first as she and Colin are revealed to be the next heirs to the fortune, and then as the prime suspect.

Swiftly, the entire Sterling family goes into lockdown at Silver North, the family’s ancestral estate in the English countryside. They’re told it’s for their own safety—but Maya becomes convinced that the real murderer is among them. Now, she has no choice but to find and expose the true threat within the Sterling family, but Maya has secrets of her own. And she knows that sometimes, in order to change the story everyone believes, you simply have to give them a better one.
