Twin brothers, separated at birth, are brought together by the mysterious disappearance of a woman they never knew-their mother, Tracey Romano-Collins. The Mayor of Detroit's life is turned upside down when his sister-in-law is found dead at the bottom of Lake Michigan in a car belonging to his wife, Tracey Romano-Collins. A homicide detective finds himself playing a deadly game of cat and mouse while investigating a person of interest who also happens to be the District Attorney, Tracey Romano-Collins. Raised a small-town girl from Alabama, Tracey Romano-Collins has spent a lifetime clawing her way out of family shame and public scorn to become the District Attorney of Detroit. Married to the Mayor and running a well-respected non-profit, Tracey seems to live a picture-perfect life. But every step of the way, she has buried personal pain and dark secrets in a house of matchsticks-using shameless deceit and unthinkable sacrifices to maintain control of everything and everyone around her. The embers of a match lit over thirty years ago finally sets her meticulously assembled house on fire, and she finds herself engulfed in its flames from the moment her dead sister's body lands in her arms. On the run for her life and a person of interest in her sister's murder, Tracey sets in motion an exit strategy hoping to keep herself and all she holds dear clear of danger. However, once her controlling hand is off of those closest to her, they all spin out wildly, colliding into catastrophe. When her long-time rival, high-powered attorney Reagan Scotto, rises from the shadows of it all, Tracey realizes the danger is far from over and that she must make her way back into the center of the explosive chaos she left behind.
