In This Story Three octagenarians, one very young detective, and a murderer who everyone can identify but who always has an air-tight alibi-leads to the murder of Emily Magillicutty. After a nasty divorce, Phoebe moves in with her aunt on the same day as she becomes the newest department detective. Aunt Emily has a gardener and a cook, all three of them being over eighty years old, but none of them are quite ready to call their lives done. In fact, each has work they feel they have yet to complete: Emily, an actress her whole life, would like to have lines for once; the gardener, an ex-cop, wants to solve a last big case; and the cook, who's family had many food allergies, wants to stretch her culinary skills to her French chef training. And all of them want to help young Phoebe get her feet under her again.
