The Robber Bride (TV)

Cop turned insurance investigator John Grismer (Shawn Doyle) reluctantly takes on the case of the mysteriously vanished Zenia Arden (Mary-Louise Parker), a femme fatale journalist whose closest pals had strong reasons for wanting her dead -- and even stronger alibis. In his search for the truth, John finds that Zenia's three supposedly closest friends - magazine editor Roz Andrews, university history professor Tony Fremont and yoga instructor Charis White - are all less than sad at Zenia's death, their lack of remorse which they are open about when questioned by John. Apparently, Zenia came unexpectedly and independently into each of their lives, made it great for a while before she did something intentionally to ruin their friendship. As John uncovers some of the information regarding Zenia's relationship with these three women, he finds that the bonds of friendship go deep... Parker delivers an Emmy-nominated performance in this adaptation of the Margaret Atwood novel.
