      When the formidable textile heiress Amelia Harwell dies under suspicious circumstances on Cape Cod, insurance investigator Johnny Dollar is called in to determine if her $350,000 in insurance was the motive for murder.

As Dollar interviews Amelia’s emotionally distant husband, their embittered children, and Dexter's estranged wife Gretchen, it becomes clear the truth is buried beneath layers of control, silence, and long-suppressed love. When an attempted second poisoning nearly claims Mr. Harwell, Johnny follows the trail to a poignant and unexpected confession. A story of dignity, sacrifice, and generational wounds, this episode of Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar explores the fine line between mercy and murder.
