Rona Shively is a private detective.  She’s smart, she’s sassy, she’s seriously confused.  She’s also got to pay the rent, so she takes on yet another crazy case.  Her new client, Ted McCafferty has asked for her assistance in finding out what happened to his sister.  All reports say that she was killed in a boating accident, but McCafferty thinks that her husband may be hiding something.  At first blush, her new client has a boyish charm and she feels very comfortable around him.  But things are never as they seem.  Before it’s over, Rona’s trapped in a basement with a dead body and an ex-boyfriend and things get ugly.  All of this plus an impromptu visit from her sister, an argument with her current boyfriend, Norm, and being questioned in connection with a local murder adds up to one stressed-out private detective who’s ready to crack.  Come along for the ride, Rona’s driving.
