Golden Girl

Talent Agent Sammy Glick has gone missing. Also missing is $7.6 million he placed in a dubious investment for June Shore, his ex-wife. Recently retired from her career as a singer and actress known as Golden Girl, June is on the verge of bankruptcy. Desperate to recover her loss, she hires Joe Costa to find Sammy and recover her missing money. Costa suspects that financial fraud, kidnapping, and murder might be involved in the case. In the course of his investigation, he crosses paths with a prominent attorney who seems to be losing his mind, a security guard obsessed with mafia romance and myth, a charismatic spiritual guru who leads a flock of benighted followers at a ranch commune, a wealthy and paranoid widow who totes an M1911 Colt 45 in her handbag, an attractive female CPA who is a cross between a schoolteacher and dominatrix, an obnoxious and foul-mouthed talent agent with many enemies and no discernible friends, a hash brownie-loving folksinger, and June, the Golden Girl herself.
