Candy Matson, a former fashion model, now earns her living chasing after “whodunit” mysteries as a private investigator. Today, she receives threats telling her to leave the case of the Cable Car Murder alone—the only trouble is that she’s already entangled in it. It all went down while she was riding the cable car that day.
Candy calls on her dutiful friend, Rembrandt, an artist and recovering alcoholic. While he hits his resources to do research, Candy puts her street smarts to work. She tracks down the stodgy relatives of the dead man and agrees to both find the killer and clear her name as one of the police’s prime suspects.
After a hard day’s work, imagine Candy’s surprise upon finding someone waiting in her house with all the lights on! It’s just Rembrandt and Mallard, her policeman friend. Although Mallard still suspects she is hiding something, Candy spends most of the night sorting through the evidence Rembrandt has gathered. The pieces finally start falling together when Candy decides to reenact her fateful cable car ride.
Soon, more bodies turn up, but Candy has it all figured out. In dramatic fashion, she closes in on the killer, cheats death, and turns the case over to Mallard.
