Fraud, Murder & Mayhem

By Ed Shiffman

Chester and Arnie are two car enthusiasts who buy an old Volkswagen Westfalia camper at an impound auction sale in Mendocino, California. Once they get the van home, they begin to disassemble it only to discover a mysterious map hidden within the ceiling. The pair thinks nothing of it until a stranger suddenly appears and offers them twice the amount of money they paid for the van in exchange for the map. Unsure of what to make of this situation, they consult Chester's girlfriend, Erika, who determines the map is a trail of locations that are hiding a fortune and is linked to an elaborate plan to defraud an insurance company.
Deciding to keep the map for themselves, they set off on a journey to find the hidden money. The map leads them to many crossroads, dangerous situations, and trials. Will the three friends be able to live through all the mayhem and find the fortune for themselves?
This is a fictional caper based on a few facts, a lot of innuendo and a fertile imagination following a trail of fraud leading to the notorious Cut Toe Gang.
