SPRING BREAKDOWN

It's springtime again, and all P.I. Maggie Skerritt and her charmingly levelheaded business partner and fiance, Bill Malcolm, can do is hope that rite of passage infamously known as spring break is quiet and painless. Luckily, as the week progresses, Maggie and Bill find the influx of college kids committing only minor offenses, albeit they're piling up like empty kegs at a frat party.

If only life could remain that simple...

While the tourists wreak mostly harmless havoc, the murder of a woman and her possible connection to a local politician grabs all Maggie's attention. And when that same connection leads her and Bill back to the unsolved case that changed-and still haunts-both their lives, Maggie suddenly wishes party patrol was all she had to worry about.
