Los Angeles greeting-card artist Wollie Shelley is dating forty men
in sixty days as research for a radio talk show host's upcoming
book, "How to Avoid Getting Dumped All the Time." Wollie is meeting
plenty of eligible bachelors but not falling in love, not until she
stumbles over a dead body en route to Rio Pescado--a state-run
mental hospital--and is momentarily taken hostage by a charismatic
"doctor" who is on the run from the Mob. Wollie fears that her
beloved brother, a paranoid schizophrenic living at Rio Pescado, is
involved in the murder, so rather than go to the authorities, she
decides to solve the crime on her own. As she meets up with an
array of small-time crooks and swaggering mobsters only slightly
more sinister than the men she's been dating, Wollie realizes that
"getting dumped" is the least of her problems. Finding true love,
she discovers, sometimes means learning how to avoid getting killed
. . .
