A mystery unfolds against an international backdrop as a female insurance investigator (Kyra Sedgwick) finds herself battling wits with a formidable Danish widow.  John Patrick Shanley, the Tony, Pulitzer and Oscar-winning author of Doubt, Moonstruck, and Outside Mullingar returns to the Powerhouse with his newest play, which he describes as “disturbing, funny, deadly serious, sexy - like a Hitchcock film with a modernist edge.”
