Where Miss Chance finds Cal Amity

Miss Felicity Chance's father is missing, and her delectable PI Calford Amity thinks he's found him. Together, they follow a trail of gold coins and secrets to Bent, Alabama, where a homeless guy named Bayou Bubba has turned up dead with an alligator tooth in his hand and a gold coin between his teeth. Unfortunately, the fish have been at poor Bubba, and it's really hard to figure out if he's Felonius Chance III or just a random stranger.

Is poor dead Bubba Miss Chance's misplaced father? Or will she be disappointed yet again? More importantly, will the mystery of his disappearance suck her down into the bogs of the Bayou, and ruin her favorite purse?
