"Saving Face"

CAN DETECTIVES PULL THE MASK OF DEATH OFF SUSPECTED COSMETIC SURGEON? -- When a female medical student is found mutilated after returning from Guatemala, Detectives Logan (Christopher Noth) and Barek (Annabella Sciorra) think that the victim was was an unlucky drug "mule" who smuggled narcotics -- but evidence leads to a tony Park Avenue cosmetic surgeon, Christine, (guest star Samantha Mathis) who might be running a fraudulent charity in Central America. While the doctor is celebrated for her donated work in facial reconstruction among the region's poor natives, both she and her nurse's aide, Antonio, (guest star Vincent Laresca ) are hiding dark secrets that require many masks. Jamey Sheridan and Courtney B. Vance also star.
