Andrew Fechmeier has spent decades hiding a dangerous secret. When diagnosed with a terminal disease, he brings a blue suit to a funeral home, secretly concealing a priceless object inside it as a final hiding spot. Before his plan can unfold, Fechmeier is murdered by a mysterious killer determined to find what he hid. Roddy LaPointe, an unconventional investigator, opens a case into Fechmeier's death with help from his friend Zig Zigarowski. Zig soon learns that Roddy's interest runs deeper: Fechmeier's murder connects to Roddy's mother, who was killed decades earlier. As the killer pursues them relentlessly, Roddy's twin sister Nola Brown launches her own investigation, uncovering a sinister plot that exposes their mother's dark history, her killer's true identity, and the shocking truth behind her death.
