Overview
How do you rebuild your life after the ultimate deception?
Charlie did not realize her marriage to Darrell was just one piece of an intricate plot, spanning continents, from the charming coastlines of New England to Vatican City.
Charlie Zancolfagasnanto is a beautiful, sexy, middle aged, intelligent woman. Her hopes and dreams of a happy life with Darrell were shattered when she realized he was nothing like the man he portrayed himself to be before they married. Since her tumultuous divorce, unbeknown to her, Charlie's ex-husband continues to monitor her every move.
Charlie's best friend, Nadine, convinces her that she has what it takes to be a great private investigator! Enter Robert Fordes, a dashing, retired cop, and owner of the largest and most prestigious detective agency in the State of Rhode Island. The two meet, and at least one half of them falls madly in love. Conflict surrounds these strong headed individuals as they constantly test each other's stamina and motivation. Charlie can't help getting herself into more than a few dill pickles, like the day Robert caught her sitting in her car with her hand down the front of her sweatshirt!
When Charlie finally becomes a licensed and bonded detective, Robert goes against his better judgment and hires her in his all-male firm. Robert feels a deep connection to Charlie, but fears he won't be able to keep his private and business life separate, not to mention that every time he tries to speak, he gets tongue tied, and the words come out all wrong. Charlie, knowing she is the first woman to join such an illustrious team, is determined to earn the respect of her coworkers, no matter what it takes. Many comical mishaps happen to Charlie, but she does not let these minor setbacks deter her from accomplishing her goal.
Robert's best friend, Fredrick, who heads the DEA, is looking for a female agent that can handle a very complex case involving the mafia and drugs. Charlie proves herself to both Robert and Fredrick when she successfully makes contact with one of the mob's top bosses, Antonio Bellesto. Intrigue and suspense build as Charlie moves dangerously close to the inner circle, obtaining the information she needs for Fredrick and the DEA.
The main target, Antonio Bellesto, is also connected with the inner workings of the Vatican. Charlie's ex-husband Darrell becomes Antonio's right hand man, with his main target his ex-wife. Neither Charlie nor Robert is prepared for the twists and turns this investigation will lead them.
At the same time, a leak is detected within the infrastructure of the DEA, compromising their mission. Charlie, Robert, and Fredrick are now working against the clock to find out who and where the leak is.
Unlikely alliances are formed when it is uncovered that a terrorist group is entwined within the inner walls of the Vatican, with its intricate plot slowly reaching fruition. The Vatican is in turmoil and faces its mightiest challenge ever, the collapse of the most powerful state and religion in the world.
