The "Hailey Dean Mysteries" are based on characters from Nancy Grace's New York Times best-selling series of Hailey Dean mystery books.

In the latest installment, Hailey Dean suspects foul play when her friend goes missing during the sale of her friend's late parents' estate.
"On the heels of a successful 'Hailey Dean' franchise debut, we are proud to continue our extraordinary partnership with
NANCY GRACE to bring her celebrated novels to life," said Michelle Vicary, Executive Vice President, Programming & Publicity. "There is no greater star than Mystery Woman herself Kellie Martin to keep our viewers on the edge of their seat as they follow the tenacious Hailey Dean on her search for truth, justice and resolution."
After her fiancé is murdered, Hailey Dean (Martin) becomes one of the country's most revered felony prosecutors. When the former attorney-turned-therapist helps her close friend, Pam, sell the estate of Pam's parents, she falls head-first into a harrowing mystery. Without notice, Pam disappears on a "dream vacation." But that dream vacation quickly turns into a nightmare for Hailey, who's convinced her long-time friend is a victim of foul play. Then, Pam's beau is left for road-kill after a hit-and-run, and Hailey's love interest falls mysteriously ill. It all goes sideways when Hailey's intuition takes over. It's a race against the clock as crime-fighter Hailey Dean puts her own
LIFE ON THE LINE as she seeks justice and uncovers the truth.
