Following standout roles in Orange Is The New Black and Painkiller, Uzo Aduba is back to lead Netflix’s latest Shondaland show The Residence.

Aduba stars as eccentric detective Cordelia Cupp who takes on a White House whodunnit. In the trailer, Cupp is brought in following the murder of White House Chief Usher A.B. Wynter, played by Giancarlo Esposito, at a State Dinner. Alongside FBI Special Agent Edwin Park (Randall Park) and Assistant Usher Jasmine Haney (Susan Kelechi Watson), she works to untangle the wild webs of this mystery and identify the killer — all in her own quirky investigative style.

Ken Marino, Jason Lee, Isiah Whitlock Jr., Edwina Findley, Molly Griggs, Al Mitchell, Dan Perrault, Bronson Pinchot, Julieth Restrepo, Mel Rodriguez, and Mary Wiseman round out the cast.

The Residence hits Netflix on March 20.
