When cartoonist Zoe Foster stumbles across a woman's lifeless body in an alley beside her New York office, she does what any good, civic-minded citizen would do: she calls 911. But when the police arrive, there's one small problem -- the woman is gone. Without proof of foul play, the police dismiss her concerns, but like Kitty Floyd, P.I., the heroine of her popular comic strip, Zoe is not easily discouraged. Her curiosity is piqued even further when she learns that the missing woman, Lola Malone, was a singer at Blue Moon, a nightclub owned by Zoe's ex-husband.
