Working Vacations Will Kill You

By Kathleen Marple Kalb

The Expendables meets NewsRadio-- with renegade lobsters. The Roscoe Gang-- former network news pros turned crisis communications experts-- is taking a much-needed working vacation at the CliffEdge Resort in Maine when a celebrity chef ends up dead in his own clambake. Now, onetime anchor Rick (NEVER Ricki Lee) McIntyre, her rainbow of friends, and her tween son Seth are handling crisis communications for the resort and not incidentally helping the very hot local police chief, Ian Glass, solve the murder. Between fighting food stars, a skeevy former network exec, unethical interns, and their own client, they have plenty of suspects. Dodging falling rocks, running lobsters, and too-hot hot tubs, the Gang closes in on the killer, and divorced Rick starts a cautious new romance with Ian. Everything comes together at (what else?) a press conference that makes entirely the wrong kind of news.
