With partner in crime Charlie Cue Ball Garfield, Tessie and Birdie will need to dodge the gossips in their 1950s blue-collar neighborhoodparticularly their evil next-door neighbor, Gert Klement, whod like nothing better than to send the sisters to homes. And, of course, theres the problem of steering clear of the kidnapping murderer if they have any hope of solving the mystery of all mysteries: the mystery of life.
