Hopefully this time around, her beloved husband won't wind
up dead. She and hubby Phil have decided to take the plunge
and start up their own investigation firm housed in the
apartment complex where they live. From sketchy businessmen
to nosy neighbors, no case is too big or small for this
dynamic marital duo.
With much excitement, the couple takes on their very first

receptionist job at Fantastic Fitness where the supposed
unfaithful hubby works out. From dumbbells to dingdongs,
Helen meets all types of personalities in hopes of catching
the two-timing husband right in the act.
In the meantime, Helen and Phil decide to investigate
another case involving a supposed suicide which took place
decades ago involving family secrets and drug lords. Not
surprisingly, Helen starts to wonder if they have taken on
more than they can handle. As the stakes are raised,
Coronado Investigations finds itself front and center in
the action. Will the newlyweds be able to solve both cases?
Or, will this new business venture cause the end of their
marital bliss?
