Steve and Kate were main characters, played during this time by Ron Harper and Diana Van Der Vlis. Kate didn’t die, it was Ellie.   She was murdered but I don’t know the details.  Not sure how prominent Ellie was but she was played by Zohra Lampert.  Mike Bersell played Ellie’s son, Peter.  I think Peter was killed off shortly before the show ended (burned to death).

In terms of a foundation, I think the show's original storylines had some interesting elements. Judge Hathaway's death sprung forth some family drama with the return of wayward sister Allison and her husband, Roy, who had been involved with Allison's sister Kate years earlier. Kate was pursued by Steve Prescott because she had inherited land that he was interested in that was tied to mobster Arthur Saxton. Michael Hathaway pined for his young stepmother Mary, who's husband Julian talked about some deep seated isues with his father. It is my understanding the day to day wasn't always the most appealing and the mob element was well received. Lou Scofield's material for "The Secret Storm" prior to this wasn't super appealing after some of John Hess' work. 

In general, I think Pat Falken Smith's work and Labine and Mayer's work was considered much stronger.
