Sinopsis

Private investigation is the Lundegaard family business. It passed down from Dorothy's father to her brother John. But, technically, it didn't pass down to her.
 
Still, when an interview for a more appropriate job for a young woman in the late 1930s St. Paul, Minnesota, leaves Dorothy burning in anger and rejection, a case for her brother's business literally falls at her feet.
 
A desperate woman needs help. And despite her lack of means, John Lundegaard is on the case. Saving her farm and her family just might be something he can pull off.
 
But not without his sister Dorothy's own unique set of skills.
