โฆ Synopsis
In December 1923, Esther Todd was a lovely young pianist, a rising star. One month later, she was on the Most Wanted List. She had vanished along the snowy streets of a stormy night in Harlem and thieves had hit the home of her society patron, pulling off a million- dollar heist.
Were the disappearance and the robbery coincidence or conspiracy? Somebody knew, but nobody was talking. Three years later, the puzzles remained unsolved.
As a tough crime reporter during the renaissance in Harlem, Lanie Price covered the initial case. Now a bored society columnist, shes ready for a change. It comes in the form of Esthers sister, Ruth.
Desperate for closure, Ruth begs Lanie to dedicate her Christmas column to the case. Maybe someone, somewhere will remember something. Seeking fresh material, Lanie starts asking hard questions, the dangerous kind, just about guaranteed to get her killed.
