Jemima Kirke Plays Lifestyle Mogul Winter Redgrave
A former pop star’s murder leads Elsbeth to examine the victim’s relationship with her sister, Winter Redgrave, played by Jemima Kirke. Winter is the CEO of a lifestyle brand, and the sisters’ bitter rivalry becomes a focus of Elsbeth’s investigation.
The case brings together two different kinds of public success: the victim’s past in pop music and Winter’s position as a lifestyle mogul. Elsbeth must look into the family relationship behind those public identities as she investigates the killing.
Christine Ebersole Visits as Elsbeth’s Mother
Christine Ebersole guest stars as Lydia, who comes to visit her daughter. The family storyline accompanies a case already centered on strained relationships between relatives, giving Elsbeth personal matters to navigate alongside her work.
The episode’s official photos also feature Ben Levi Ross, who plays Elsbeth’s son, Teddy Tascioni. The gallery pairs Ross with Ebersole in one still and Preston with Kirke in another, offering a look at both sides of tonight’s episode.
