When a woman's body is found at the bottom of an air shaft in a Times Square hotel, it looks like a routine suicide. Enter: homicide detectives Lennie Briscoe and Ed Green. Something about the woman seems out of place in this tourist trap - her clothing indicates she was elegant. No self-respecting rich person would be caught dead in a place like this.
The trail of clues leads through the streets of New York to the city woman's apartment and a drawer that holds an about to be published tell-all novel that was destined to be a bestseller. What's in the novel that's worth killing over? It's a story that could have been ripped from the headlines, with the kind of "Law & Order Twist" you've come to expect!
