A homeless man is found murdered, no I.D. Another John Doe that nobody cares or is interested in, no known relatives to locate, and for Detective Isabelle Russo probably another dead end.

But during the autopsy, a key is found on the victim taped to the inside of his right foot sneaker, a key to a locker at a train station which turns out to contain over $500,000 cash. This changes things.

Detective Isabelle Russo digs deeper and subsequent facial recognition technology establishes that the victim is a probable match for Marlon Sucher a member of the multi-billionaire Sucher family who own half of the city. The only problem is that Marlon Sucher died two months ago in a fiery car crash, a high-profile death reported widely. DNA testing with the family reveals that the homeless victim was indeed Marlon Sucher. So who the hell was killed in the car crash? And why was Marlon Sucher posing as a homeless person with a locker full of cash?
