A comedic murder mystery, complete with mistaken identities, six million bucks in diamonds, and a corpse in a wheelchair.

Should he succeed in passing his uncle off as alive, Harry Witherspoon stands to inherit six million dollars. If not, the money goes to the Universal Dog Home of Brooklyn...or else his uncle's gun-toting ex!
