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 town's
menfolk.
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.
