Meet Emma McCarthy, a thirty-year-old failed actress who just moved home to Plymouth, Massachusetts, and her mother, Cindy, a yoga instructor in the Pinehills, an exclusive golf community in town. They've just inherited Court Street Investigations, a private detective agency—and its one part-time employee, eighty-year-old Mickey, a retired police detective. They expect typical cases like cheating spouses or workman's comp, but when they are hired to find a local missing woman, they quickly learn that the agency also has a reputation for solving murders.
