Step back in time to the Gilded Age of Newport, Rhode Island, where opulent mansions lined the Bellevue Avenue and fortunes soared with the rise of industrial tycoons. Amidst this glittering facade, a sinister secret lurked within the grand walls of Rough Point, the summer retreat of Doris Duke.

In the heart of summer, as the elite of society descended upon Newport, tragedy struck. On July 8, 1926, Edwin Chaffee, a young man with connections to the Duke family, was found brutally murdered on the sprawling estate.
