When single mother Peggy Jean Turner succeeds her late
husband as mayor of Cobb's Landing, she faces a major
challenge: rescue the New England village from its
financial woes. Now she's singing the praises of the
wealthy miracle man who bought the local bank. Mayor P.J.
Turner thinks Max is a godsend... Max's plan? Turn Cobb's Landing into a tourist attraction
by "going Colonial." So far so quaint, until period clothes
and corn husking become mandatory, and baseball and
satellite dishes are banned (under the threat of punishment
in the stocks). Yet Cobb's Landing is prospering, and who
can argue with that? Certainly not Selma, the town
tart...since she's just drowned. What's more, the splinters
under her fingernails match the same wood once used to
torture witches in New England's dishonorable past. It
appears someone's taking ye olde customs to extremes. Now
it's up to P.J. to solve the crime and wrestle Cobb's
Landing from Max's clutches before more old-fashioned
traditions take their toll...
