Description:

Jordan finds herself knee deep in strippers and Russian gangsters, when she responds to a suspected murder-suicide at a local gentleman's club. Unconvinced by the police theory of a distraught jealous lover, Jordan enlists the help of her eager colleagues Trey and Bug to reveal more with a detailed investigation of the Russian mob-run club. Her suspicions are confirmed by the arrival of FBI Agent Annie Larrabee, but it isn't until Jordan role-plays with Max that she truly peels away the deceptions surrounding the double homicide. Meanwhile, Garret must deal with a school scandal involving his daughter, Abby.
