Dan Lightfoot’s wandering eye has finally gotten the best
of his wife, Lexie.
Bereft, she moves with her teenage daughter, Eva, back to
her hometown, Moose
Creek Junction, Wyoming, to be near her sister Lucy, and
they open a small
business, The Saucy Lucy Café. It sounded like a good idea.
Hometown. Family.
A career and an income… But Lucy is a staunch, churchgoing woman who believes her
sister must remarry
in order to enter the kingdom of heaven and the reluctant
Lexie finds herself
dating again. Trouble is, all her dates wind up dying and
visiting Stiffwell’s
Funeral Parlor. Gossiping townspeople begin to mistrust the
sisters and café
customers dwindle…along with the men’s townfolk. Although Detective Gabe Stevenson, with whom Lexie has a
love/hate
relationship, and Lucy’s husband, the inept town sheriff,
Otis Parnell, warn
the sisters not to get involved, Lexie just can’t let
things be. Business is
down the toilet and, according to Lexie, the police simply
aren’t getting the
job done. It’s time to intervene. And so begins the hilarious and half-baked investigation of
The Saucy Lucy
Murders.
