Chad Hodge and Blake Crouch are behind the hour, which is based on the latter's Letty Dobesh books. "Fresh out of prison, Letty is attempting to stay afloat. But when she overhears a hitman being hired to kill a man's wife, she sets out to derail the job, setting her on a collision course with the killer and entangling them in a dangerous and seductive relationship."

Camp will play Jane, "a highly skilled, couture wearing and straight arrow star researcher at the mag"; with Angelson as Patti Robinson, "a wild-haired tenacious researcher and an adventurous flower child who just back to New York after a transformative six months in San Francisco."
