Plot

Having walked out on her cheating husband Jeff (Morales), Terry Silva (Turner) moves in with her best friend Donna Avedon (Tracy Griffith). This set-up proves most untenable when Terry finds out that Donna is Jeff's longtime mistress. Vowing to get revenge on both Jeff and Donna, Terry fakes her own death — intending to frame her husband and her faithless friend for murder.

Yet another variation on the old Diabolique formula, the made-for-TV Circle of Deceit was clearly conceived to showcase the flexibility of Northern Exposure star Turner, who was also one of the movie's producers.
