Brittany, a spike-haired cutie with a smart-ass attitude, shows up on Jack’s doorstep.

Her problem: the cops suspect her mother of attempted murder. 

The surprise: Brittany’s mother and Jack are cousins. 

Jack’s problem: decades ago, he disowned his family and he’d rather not take them back, at least not until Jack’s girlfriend Sheila cajoles him into taking the case. With each new family member he meets - shady characters, oddballs and misfits all - complications pile up and Jack is forced to look for help. He could ask an
old buddy in the police department, or his Sonny Bono lookalike uncle or even a junkyard dealer/thug/baseball card collector. 
Or he could listen to Sheila’s sensible advice, loaded as it is with wisecracks.

If he gets truly desperate, Jack might have to call on his biker buddy, behemoth Tiny Cole.  

In the end however, Jack will have to solve this case alone, even if he will be shattered by the fallout.
