JUNIOR BENDER UNTANGLES ONE OF THE WEIRDEST MYSTERIES IN
TINSELTOWN LA burglar Junior
Bender has (unfortunately) developed a reputation as a
competent private investigator for crooks. The unfortunate
part about this is that regardless of whether he solves the
crime or not, someone dangerous is going to be unhappy with
him, either his suspect or his employer.
Now
Junior is being bullied into proving aging music industry
mogul Vinnie DiGaudio is innocent of the murder of a nasty
tabloid journalist he'd threatened to kill a couple times.
It doesn’t help that the dead journalist’s widow is one
pretty lady, and she’s trying to get Junior to mix pleasure
with business. Just as the investigation is spiraling out of
control, Junior's hard-drinking landlady begs him to solve
the disappearance of her daughter, who got involved with a
very questionable character. And, worst news of all, both
Junior's ex-wife and his thirteen-year-old daughter, Rina,
seem to have new boyfriends. What a mess.
