Shondaland continues to take over ABC, and we couldn’t be more excited.

Variety reports that ABC just picked up a new Shonda Rhimes-produced drama for the 2015-2016 season. The thriller, titled The Catch, will follow around a forensic accountant and her scheming fiancée. But it isn’t long before the leading lady’s secrets are revealed, and her shady ways begin to clash with her bae’s cons.

The series is to be executively produced by Rhimes, Betsy Beers, Julie Anne Robinson and Jennifer Schuur. Helen Gregory and Kate Atkinson are signed on as co-producers.

The Catch will be the latest addition to Rhimes’ expansive empire, whose shows include Scandal, Grey’s Anatomy and newcomer How to Get Away With Murder.
