Can a real estate appraiser in a New Jersey beach town get in this much trouble? If your name translates to "pretty nice" in French, you're probably used to teasing. It doesn't prepare you to find out your soon-to-be-ex-husband raided your assets and embezzled from his bank. Jolie moves to Aunt Madge's Jersey shore bed and breakfast in Ocean Alley, taking her cat Jazz and joining Madge's pair of prune-eating dogs. Soon Jolie is rekindling friendships, dodging a low-level wise guy, and (oops!) finding a dead body. Can she prove a friend's innocence in time, or will Jolie be the next victim?
