L.A. detective Jerry Zalman's father arrives in town and begins telling a bizarre story about a magician, a blackmailing psychic, a monkey, a rock star, and a murder, leading Jerry, against his better judgement, into another murder investigation
Zalman shines again, this time with assistance from his professional gambler father, superagent sister, and a monkey. I love the bonding between Zalman Sr and Captain Thrasher, Marie's Jerry-hating Dad.
