TV DIMENSION:
Literary TV world
(The same dimension where 'Once Upon A Time' characters began.)
PLOT DESCRIPTION:
From Hal Erickson of Rovi:
Frank Albertson (a pre-'Politically Incorrect' Bill Maher) is a
down-on-his-luck private eye, dealing mostly with surveillance camera jobs of
guys cheating on their wives. After years of sponging off Frank and his wife
Sunny (Faith Ford), Frank's uncle Charlie (John Finnegan) suddenly inherits a
fortune--and just as suddenly disappears. Later on, a mangled corpse is found on
a local railroad track, whereupon Frank attempts to claim the body as that of
Uncle Charlie.. However, there seems to be several other people interested in
claiming the corpse--and the aforementioned inheritance--themselves.
From the source:
Our hero - Well now let me see, is hero the right word for Frank Albertson?
Maybe not. I promise you, he's not very heroic. Actually he's a lost soul
looking for one good shot at the brass ring.
The story opens on a spring day in
sunny Hollywood, land of orange groves, movie stars, and private
detectives......
(from the foreword to "Goodbye, Charlie" by JB Fletcher)
