New York, NY, 1963. When two young women - just out of college, starting their first jobs in The Big City - wind up dead in their Upper East Side apartment, raped, mutilated, the victims of a terrible, heinous attack, the City is thrown into chaos. If these girls aren't safe, who is? The NYPD is under such pressure to solve the high-profile case it makes a tragic mis-step in the investigation of the case the newspapers dub "The Career Girls Murders."
