The eight episode series set in White House is inspired from New York Times bestselling non-fiction book, "The Residence: Inside the Private World of the White House," by Anderson Bower which includes points of views of the staffs who have worked for America's first families including Kennedy, Reagan, Clinton, and Obama
The official synopsis of the series reads: "132 rooms. 157 suspects. One dead body. One wildly eccentric detective. One disastrous State Dinner. The Residence is a screwball whodunnit set in the upstairs, downstairs, and backstairs of the White House, among the eclectic staff of the world's most famous mansion." The Residence will be the juiciest version White House with a classic Shonda style twist.

The second installment of her series "Bridgerton" will hit Netflix on 25 March.
