The Painting
The Kerslake siblings (Chad, Petula, Tripp) learn a painting that's been in the family for over a century is worth twenty million. The problem is they don’t own it. Their eccentric father bequeathed it to a foundation that plans to sell it. They vow to fight, each with their own selfish motives. Things get complicated when they discover it's a fake and Tripp's old girlfriend, an artist known for reproductions, is found dead like a frozen mermaid under the lake ice and Tripp is the main suspect. (Inspired by true events). #upmarket #pilot #tvseries
