Invited to crabby old family matriarch "Mamaw" Toadfern's Thanksgiving celebration Josie is too curious to refuse. There she finds her long lost mom and pop, blandly unapologetic and full of new -- probably illegal -- get-rich-quick schemes. When a dead body is tossed into the chaos of bitter feelings, intra-family feuding, and incinerated turkey meat, Josie finds herself in the position of having to prove her disreputable dad innocent of murder.
