Queen of Hearts

Terence Rodgers, private investigator, lives in the city of Canaan, in the imaginary state of North Colorado.  Born in 1930, he once had a great career.  He came to believe that Life, with a capital, “L,” conspired against him and he became disillusioned in the mid-sixties.  Now, in 1986, he merely goes through the motions.  His life is like his office, outdated, tired, and in need of major reworking.  An angry uncle, a missing heiress, and a young amnesiac with green eyes are about to shake up his somnambulistic routine.  In the card game of life every man needs a Queen of Hearts.
