About This Show

A ‘Dramedy’ that takes us through a harrowing, hilarious night with two elderly but spry African American sisters. Jesstell Beaumont-Handsome, is convinced she has accidentally killed her under-cover spy husband and is now on the lam.  She rushes to her youngest sister’s home, distraught. She is received by an annoyed sibling, Bitty Beaumont. Resenting this intrusion, on her 65th birthday, but intrigued by all things Forensics Files and Unsolved Mysteries, Bitty lends an ear and does her own brand of sleuthing. Meanwhile, family secrets begin to spill out making this a very sobering and thrilling ride for all.
