Finley Wade

Private Investigator Finley Wade's stubborn streak kicks in when the cops insist that her ex-partner Jack's death was a random act of violence. As she digs deeper into the mystery behind the brutal murder, Finley soon discovers that no one is as they seem and the truth she desperately seeks may only lead to one conclusion. A permanent partnership with Jack, in the afterlife.

Jack Higgins

When Jack Higgins suddenly reappears after a 2 year absence, his former partner Finley won't listen to his explanation. And then he's murdered. But a little something like death isn't enough to keep this retired PI from getting at the truth. Maybe it has something to do with his mysterious disappearance?  As he and Finley get closer to the truth, Jack must try to come to terms with the real reason he skipped town.  

 

Zelda Rouse

Finley's girlfriend Zelda is a method actress who usually keeps out of the PI business. She's got the family rum company and an endless stream of auditions to keep her busy.  Then her brother Walter is shot and the Zelda rushes headfirst into Finley's world ready to grill the rube, get the dope and solve the case.

Walter Rouse and his Crazy Girlfriend

When he's not tailing a suspect, Finley's current partner Walter writes sexy romance novels. Distracting him from the case is his Crazy Girlfriend, who likes to reenact her favorite scenes in public places.

 

Detective Tony Wade

Finley's cousin, Detective Tony Wade, is the one insisting that Jack's death was a random act of violence. Maybe it's cause the case looks pretty open and shut or maybe it's cause Tony and Jack shared a mutual hatred of one another. Either way, Tony is getting tired of Finley pulling him away from real police work to chase after ghosts.

Maggie

As the owner of the Unicorn , Jack's favorite watering hole, her eyes and ears are always open. Maggie gives Finley the lowdown on the major players in the investigation.

Grant Wellman

On the fringe of Jack's circle of friends, Grant has a secret he's been keeping for too many years.

Constance Sullivan
She was married to Jack's first partner Rex. Is there a connection between Jack's murder and her cryptic messages to Finley?
