Actress Meg Barnes, beloved for her role as amateur sleuth Jinx Fogarty in a renowned TV show, assumes she’ll star as Jinx in the revival, only to discover that a young ingenue has been cast instead.

But when Jinx’s iconic top hat goes missing and someone from her past is murdered, it’s clear Meg’s life-and more-is in jeopardy.
