At age twenty-nine, Charlie Cooper's life is not exactly a hit. Working as a precinct secretary at the Boston Police answering phones, making appointments and writing up crime reports means she might not be on the fast track to her ultimate dream job.
And her living situation? She is the proud inhabitant of the most minuscule "master suite" she can afford to pay, where she can brush her teeth, get her clothes out of the dresser drawer and turn on the hallway light without getting out of bed.
But when a job opportunity arises, she's ready to take the bull by the horns and prove she is more than just a fast typist. Sure, she has to bite the bullet by returning to her hometown and living with her wacky family, but this is only the cover for her real assignment: finding clues involving a real big drug case.
What starts out as harmless snooping turns into a pile of dead bodies, slashed tires and threatening notes. But Charlie is determined to solve the case and catch the killer before he catches her.
Throw in two fearless waitresses and a hot fry cook who is not what he seems, and you've got the perfect mix of a fast-paced and exciting mystery.

Charlie Cooper begins a new life in her hometown, Springston. Granted, it’s not as glamorous as she thought it will be. Living with her parents and her brother again means waking up at 6 a.m. with the sound of rock music and putting up with her brother’s annoying video games.
Still, she’s confident that a new apartment will bring her the peace and quiet that she needs. Only problem: lack of funds.
But that should change soon! Together with her new companions, Marge and Celeste, she sets out to be the best undercover investigator the town has ever seen. When their first case comes rolling in, the girls have to bring an escaped red panda back to the zoo. It’s not exactly the dazzling detective work that Charlie had hoped for, but she’s determined to wrap up this case promptly.
Things go south, when the girls not only find the panda, but also something else. Let’s just say it’s a body part that should definitely be attached to a person.
The girls launch themselves into solving the missing body part mystery, but what they get is more than they’ve bargained for. To top things off, Springston’s most handsome detective is constantly on their tail.

Charlie's new life in her hometown, Springston, is surely like a rollercoaster ride. You know, when you want to jump for joy, close your eyes, scream from the top of your lungs, throw up and pass out...all at the same time. Anything else would be just plain boring.
Together with Marge and Celeste, her business partners and new best friends, Charlie sets out to fight crime in Springston by being an undercover detective. But that sounds easier than it actually is.
Her new case involves surveillance of a husband who is presumably unfaithful to his wife. Pretty simple, right?
Wrong!
When a dead body appears, and said husband disappears, things might just get out of hand.
Between finding the missing spouse, going to cocktail class with her mom, saving a disastrous dinner involving the hottest cop in town and fixing a laptop she has no clue about, it's time for Charlie to step up before it's not too late.

Charlie's life in her hometown, Springston, is not by far as dull as she expected it to be. Stumbling over dead bodies, being held at gunpoint or getting kidnapped in the back of a van would actually qualify as a pretty exciting life. If you like to live on the edge.
Still, Charlie hopes her next case would not include dead people, guns or exploding cars. Well...one could at least hope.
When Celeste's nephew, Lucas, is suspected of attempted bank robbery and CMC Services - a.k.a. Charlie and her best friends, Marge and Celeste - is called in to help, the girls launch into crime-fighting mode yet again. Apparently, Lucas could be a key witness in what seems to be the new crime wave in Springston.
Charlie soon finds herself trying to solve another murder, causing a small explosion involving one particular item in Marge's black hole of a purse, dodging the advances of Celeste's cousin, Eddy, and trying to get on board with her mom's new healthy diet. All the while with Alex, Springston's hot detective, right on her heels.
Running low on caffeine and running out of time, Charlie has to step up her game and out-step a killer.

Charlie, Marge and Celeste are back! This time in Las Vegas. Las Vegas? That’s right. What better way to celebrate a milestone birthday than to fly to Sin City?
When Marge and Celeste surprise Charlie with tickets to Vegas, she decides it’s going to be the best weekend ever. I mean, how often does a gal turn 30?
But Charlie wouldn’t be Charlie, if she didn’t stumble into a hot mess in the most unlikely place. She comes to realize that finding a small velvet bag full of diamonds does not mean you’ve hit the jackpot playing slots. Neither does finding a dead body when you at least expect it. Nor being chased by presumably some bad dudes for finding said body.
Talk about bad luck in Vegas.
How do you survive illicit bus rides, surprise guests and bachelor parties all while trying to stay alive…and getting rid of those darned diamonds?
There is only one answer in Vegas: you either win…or you lose.

Charlie Cooper, former secretary for the Boston PD, chocolate enthusiast and private investigator extraordinaire takes on her most puzzling case yet. Having to work for the grumpiest man in town, Edgar McMillan, the only clues she gets to solve her next case are a lurking shadow, a gunshot blast, possibly a Tony winner, some Ponies and Betty’s crew. Needless to say, nobody knows who Betty is. Or her crew.
Oh, and there’s the dead body too. Charlie hates when that happens. Found in no other place than the client’s backyard just seconds after he was shot. But what was he doing there in the first place?
Adding to the stress is Charlie’s mother, who’s current project is redecorating the house, meaning there are more cans of paint in the kitchen than a batch of fresh baked cookies. To top it off, Charlie’s love life takes a hit when her boyfriend, Detective Alex Spencer, is assigned the same case as she is.
Together with Marge and Celeste, her best friends and business partners, Charlie sets out to find the killer and reinstall peace in her life.

It’s springtime in Charlie’s hometown and love is in the air. Finally.
While Charlie is enjoying her relationship with her hunky detective boyfriend, Marge tries out online dating. And what she gets is the mother of all dates. One that starts out in a too-good-to-be-true promising way and ends up in disaster. It really was too good to be true.
What’s left is a new murder case and a new client. Bad for Marge, good for business. It’s time for CMC Services to step in.
Charlie and the gang soon find themselves cruising the world of car dealerships, wreaking havoc in local pubs, dodging a mean Doberman that’s very into neon green beads, and sometimes—really, just sometimes, so it doesn’t really count—veering off the right side of the law.
With a suspect list longer than Celeste’s colored painted nails, Charlie’s mom and her newest creative endeavor, and a definitely-not-amused Alex about his girlfriend meddling with his case—as he would put it—it’s time for CMC to up their game and get their job done.
