Tired of getting no respect at the big P.I. firm where
she's worked for years, Dix Dodd has hung out her own
shingle at the ripe age of 40. There are plenty of cheating
husbands to go around, and Dix has a knack for busting
them. Problem is, it doesn't always pay so well. Conscious
that the guys back at the old firm are laying bets about
how soon she'll come crawling back, she figures she's got
six months to make a go of it. The going gets even tougher
when she hires Dylan Foreman. But when he told her about
getting fired from his law firm and disbarred for putting
common decency before the firm's interests, she hired him
on the spot. In addition to being smart, he's gorgeous
enough to remind her she's a woman. And at 28, young enough
to make her feel like a total cougar. Things start looking
up when Dix gets hired by millionaire businessman Ned
Weatherby's wife Jennifer Weatherby, to tail Ned 24/7 for a
week, for a cool ten grand. Easy–peasy, right? Wrong!
The job lands Dix in the middle of a murder investigation
– with her as the prime suspect and her
arch–enemy Detective Richard Head (a.k.a., Dickhead,
one of the cheating husbands she'd nailed) gunning for her.
Dix will need all her ingenuity, as well as the help of
Dylan and her oddball cast of supporters to extricate
herself from this one.
