Benny and Joy like to say that they''ve been saving each other''s lives since the moment they met . . .

Until the day Joy disappears and Benny is accused of her murder.

Best friends Benny and Joy host a beloved ''comedy survival'' podcast, gleefully finding life-affirming humour in near-death experiences.

When Benny arrives at Joy and her husband''s home one morning to record, he finds shattered glass and an empty house.

With Joy missing and the hours ticking by, not even their most devoted fans could guess the terrible secrets they have hidden from the world - and from each other.
