Wealth. Power. Deception. Murder.

Welcome to Medina, Washington.

Nestled on the water's edge near Seattle, Medina is the richest zip code in the Pacific Northwest. Luxurious beyond belief, this untouchably powerful enclave is home to many of the wealthiest men and women in America. But when a celebrity tech CEO is found dead at his fiftieth birthday party, suspicion begins to swirl through the community like a mist over Lake Washington.

All eyes fall on Suzanne Hartley, a three-time widow whom the local press has dubbed The Gilded Widow.

Tasked with peeling back layers of deceit, Agent Claire Anderson and her team find themselves entwined in the lives of the affluent, where friendly smiles mask dark motives and truth is just another commodity to be traded. But as more suspicious deaths come to light, FBI Task Force S.W.O.R.D. is confronted by a stark question: is The Gilded Widow really the cunning architect of multiple murders, or is she the tragic victim of a series of abusive husbands?

In opulent Medina, every mansion hides secrets, revealing a labyrinth of deceit that stretches across some of the most powerful families in the world. Investigating these families is risky, but when the team finally learns the truth, it may be dangerous enough to bring down FBI Task Force S.W.O.R.D. for good.
