Synopsis

"Witty, wild, and full of surprises, this comedic mystery takes readers on an unforgettable ride through the mind-bending world of Peter Higgins, a detective who’s about to find out the universe is a lot bigger—and stranger—than he ever imagined." - Kirkus Reviews

Peter Higgins is not your typical private detective. Down on his luck, with a case load as empty as his wallet and an office rent long overdue, things couldn’t get worse—until a mysterious woman with no memory but holding a suitcase full of cash walks into his life. She hires him to figure out who she is, and for a moment, Peter thinks things are looking up—until everything spirals out of control. Peter inherits his late uncle’s (the “mad scientist” of the family) bizarre mansion, packed with strange inventions and stranger staff, unlocking a deadly mystery—his uncle was murdered, and Peter has to find out why.

As if juggling an amnesiac client and a house of interdimensional inventions weren’t enough, two goons start chasing Peter, convinced he possesses The Item—something that could open a doorway to another dimension. Peter must use his PI skills to stay one step ahead of disaster, while uncovering the secrets behind his uncle’s inventions. With danger closing in and the universe more mysterious than he ever imagined, Peter may just find his true potential—if he can survive the madness around him.
