The book follows Chet and Bernie as they investigate the murder of a wealthy businessman. The businessman, Richard Lancing, was found dead in his home, and the police are baffled. Chet and Bernie decide to take on the case, and they soon find themselves up against a cast of quirky characters, including Lancing's eccentric wife, his greedy mistress, and his loyal but dim-witted assistant.

As Chet and Bernie dig deeper, they uncover a web of secrets and lies. They learn that Lancing was involved in a number of shady business dealings, and that he had a lot of enemies. The two detectives soon realize that the murder was more complicated than they first thought, and that they are in over their heads.

Despite the danger, Chet and Bernie refuse to give up. They are determined to find Lancing's killer, and to bring justice to his family. With their wits and determination, they eventually solve the case and unmask the killer.
