Did Agnes and Effie make a killing on this fixer-upper?

When 28-year-old Agnes Blythe, the dowdy half of an academic power couple, is jilted by her professor boyfriend, her glamorous, eccentric Great Aunt Effie offers a job helping to salvage the condemned Stagecoach Inn. But work has barely begun when they find the body of manipulative Kathleen Todd, with whom Agnes and Effie have recently had words strong enough to land them at the top of the suspect list.

The pair have clearly been framed, but no one seems interested in finding the real murderer, and Agnes and Effie's sleuthing expertise is not exactly slick. Danger mounts, deadlines loom, and ancient knob-and-tube wiring is explored as the ladies navigate car chases, shotgun blasts, and awkward strolls down memory lane.
