Based on the 2011 murder of Betsy Faria that resulted in the conviction of her husband, Russ, but he insisted he did not kill her. This brutal crime set off a chain of events that would expose a diabolical scheme deeply involving Pam Hupp.

Casey Jones gave up a golf career for her husband. One morning she finds her 25-year old marriage in free fall and her son off to college, she dusts off the clubs she tossed aside years ago and redefine the "back nine" of her life.

Meet Pam Hupp, Betsy Faria's close friend and the last person to see her alive after dropping Betsy off at home on the night of her murder. Betsy's husband, Russ Faria, makes a 9-1-1 distraught call.

Pam becomes a source of support not just for Betsy's family, but for law enforcement and District Attorney Leah Askey as they build their case. Russ hires Joel Schwartz, a top criminal defense attorney from St. Louis.

Pam starts to lose control as Russ' new trial looms--facing money troubles, a relentless "Dateline" producer and difficulty caring for her sick mother. Askey realizes Pam isn't the star witness she thought. Joel makes a breakthrough.

Pam gets her 15 minutes of fame when D.A. Askey calls her to the stand as a witness for the prosecution even as Joel tries to poke holes in the case against Russ.

Pam goes to shocking and absurd extremes to extricate herself from the web of lies she has spun. Some measure of justice, redemption and hope is finally found.

Pam gains notoriety once the "Dateline" episode airs. As she squares off against Betsy's daughters in a civil suit for the insurance money, public opinion turns against her. Leah Askey finds her seat as District Attorney challenged by Mike Wood, whose campaign centers around Pam's connection to Betsy's murder.
