"A fun, wild, hilarious ride--Peter Key is not your grandma's amateur sleuth, in the best way. This is a fresh take on some classic themes, and it tackles them with a bite. An out of the blue inheritance that's more than it seems, a fancy neighborhood with a dark underbelly, and a snarky world-weary bisexual disaster child who is, underneath it all, endearingly tenacious.
