Cary Grant Harrigan is a wanted man. Wanted for questioning by the Portneuf
Gap Police Department about the bizarre murder of his fiancé. Wanted by the FBI
regarding a couple of paintings in his possession which are either stolen originals
or fabulous fakes. But Harrigan is MIA and sister/sleuth Sadie Harrigan wants to
find him first before the get-rich-quick-scheme he's involved in has him
exchanging his surfer wetsuit for a prison jump suit.
Cary and fiancé Frobi Fisher arrive in Portneuf Gap, Idaho hoping to sell his
mortician grandmother on ordering caskets from their internet company. But
before they can seal the deal Frobi's body is discovered behind the wheel of their
rental car, marked and enshrouded in gold paint. Sadie's frantic search for her
brother is repeatedly impeded by her best friend's reluctance to help, by a
determined ghost buster duo, and one stalker fan who insists his favorite
primetime cooking diva is holed up in one of Sadie's apartments. Eccentric
mother, Willie, jets from L.A., adding more hindrance than assistance.
Throw in dire threats from someone anonymous demanding Frobi's missing
laptop be returned and Sadie's not sure she can save Cary, or herself, from this
grave situation.
