Efficient, level-headed and fair according to his tributes: successful businessman Robert Miller laps up the praise of friends and family during his 60th birthday bash. The luxury of New York’s upper class is a matter of course for the immensely wealthy hedge fund manager, his wife Ellen and daughter Brooke. But when the cracks in the financial market begin to grow, the Miller’s façade begins to crumble. Up to now, Robert has been able to keep the truth of his fraudulent transactions from his wife family. In order to bury the tryuth, Robert must get rid of his business as soon as possible. When Robert is involved in a hit and run accident that kills his secret lover Julie, he begins a fatal downward spiral, while his imminent arrest forces him to stray even further from the legal line.
