Three strangers who share a love of true-crime podcasts become unlikely amateur detectives when a resident of their New York apartment building is found dead. Convinced the death was a murder, they begin investigating the case while documenting their discoveries in a podcast of their own. As they dig deeper, they uncover secrets hidden among the building’s residents and realize that almost anyone could have a motive. Their investigation soon leads them into a series of increasingly mysterious cases, where personal secrets, unexpected connections, and new suspects keep changing what they thought they knew.
