A New York apartment play, 2011, but something has gone wrong, terribly wrong. Someone has been murdered. And what's that mysterious sound? Tonight, nightly news investigates. Stay tuned for an exclusive interview with the murderer. Or the playwright. Or the playwright's murderer. A three-part, mostly true crime true story.
