PI Sunny Randall has often relied on the help of her best friend Spike in times of need. When Spike's restaurant is taken over under a predatory loan agreement, Sunny has a chance to return the favour.

What appear to be two disparate cases are united by a common factor, and the picture becomes even more muddled.
