Recently separated from her domineering husband, Lucy Trimble is eager to start a life of her own. When a relative wills her his private detective agency, Lucy--who up to this point has worked as a librarian--thinks she's found her calling. The problem is that most of her clients are unscrupulous gamblers and crooks--members of a sinister underworld of which Lucy has no comprehension. Determined to make a go of it, Lucy employs her own brand of sleuthing, despite the threats and "advice" of her new-found business associates.
Lucy Brenner's cousin, David Trimble, has died and made her his sole beneficiary. She decides to carry on his business -- a private detective agency.
