Crime Shoppers

Paulie Mark goes missing and Father Timothy Reilly is determined to find him. He enlists the services of his friends a motley collection of sports fans eaters card players and amateur detectives known facetiously by the locals as the Crime Shoppers whose unwelcome nickname derives more from their usual meeting spot than from their limited crime-solving success. The Crime Shoppers reluctantly join the hunt but get more than they bargained for when Paulie Mark goes from missing person to murder suspect. CRIME SHOPPERS follows the exploits of our novice sleuths as they attempt to find and defend the wayward member of Father Tim's parish flock. Their rambling quest brings the Crime Shoppers in regular contact and frequent conflict with each other as well as with sharp legal minds reluctant witnesses unsavory mobsters and yes hovering buzzards. Quaint history-rich Burlington City will never be the same.
