Birdie Harper has a problem...she's a bit of a collector. Well collector might be an understatement. She's a full-blown hoarder!
Birdie doesn't see it that way though. She considers herself a finder of lost treasures and the only thing Birdie loves more than a great deal at a yard sale is to head to the parking lot of her favorite hobby store and search through their dumpster for bright new shiny things.
During one such dumpster dive during one of her dives Birdie makes a horrific discovery...the dead body of a young woman she had a soft spot for. Determined to find out who murdered her friend Birdie drags along her recently deceased husband Walter (who obviously has problems of his own!) and her long-suffering sister Oda Dean as back-up.
But the murderer is paying attention and if Birdie's not careful the next body dying in a dumpster will be her own!
