"Silent Auction" -- Annabeth and the team enter the jealous, competitive world of the PTA when a dad is murdered during a school function, on CLOSE TO HOME, Friday, Nov. 3 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Kevin Dowling, one of the series' producers, directed the episode from a script by Lindsay Sturman & Antoinette Stella.

While they investigate the murder, Annabeth and Maureen unravel a culture of obsession and rivalry amid a group of formerly employed mothers who run their children's after-school activities like they would a major corporation. As they focus on one mother who they suspect of having an affair with the victim, they discover that the parents' activities included a lot more than just taking care of their children.
