When a mystery writer rents a quiet place in
the New England countryside, she finds herself involved in sinister
activities. A body she finds in the closet promptly disappears only
to be succeeded by another. Mix in a wise-cracking secretary, the
housekeeper and her crooked boyfriend, plus a man suffering from
amnesia, and mystery and comedy reach a high peak. No one is really
who they seem to be. There are plenty of laughs and lots of surprises
in this fast paced show!
