Since Burt retired at fifty-two, he's been bored. After a chance encounter with a mugger he decides he might just be meant to save the world one crime at a time. And voilà, Burt's Private Investigations is born. Before he knows it, he's in deep and possibly over his head. He stumbles onto a dead body, which turns out to be the daughter of the town's country club owner who has rumblings of mob ties in his past. The clues lead him all over the North Georgia mountains, but the most intriguing ones lead to an end of the world compound and its charismatic leader. Thrown into a bizarre new world, Burt uses his humor to charm potential suspects, his eccentric friends to aid in his discoveries, and his new zest for life to charge directly ahead into the unknown as he learns on the job how to catch a killer.
