California Follies is a hilarious satire on modern day life in the East Bay Area of San Francisco. It’s also a perplexing murder mystery that takes place during and just after the Pandemic.           When millionaire land owner Ramsay Marshall turns up dead in Lake Tahoe waters, his daughter Sophia suspects foul play. She hires Palmer Doyle, a disabled Afghan War vet turned private investigator.           Sophia and Palmer have history. Fifteen years ago, in Afghanistan, when Palmer was injured in a bomb explosion Sophia was the Army trauma nurse who pieced Palmer back together. There was a spark between them then but both were married.           Now years later both of their spouses are deceased; Sophia and Palmer are single and the spark between them is alive. Still attracted to Sophia and determined to win her favor, Palmer puts his staff of oddball Investigators on the case. There is a lot at stake. Ramsay’s estate is worth $50 Million dollars, maybe more? Besides Sophia there are two other heirs; her half-brother Brad, a gambling addict who keeps Viagra in his system 24/7, and Ramsay’s third wife, Jojo, a trophy bride, forty years his junior and a former bikini barista. California Follies is fast paced mesmerizing thriller, full of humor, slapstick comedy, and oddball plot twists that will keep you guessing to the very last page.
