Pavlova. Dominoes. Jamie falls in love and has his heart broken by a roustabout. The cops arrive. What happens to the body isn't fit to be printed on the outside of a book. As others crack up, Jamie finds himself gaining in strength. Will he solve the murder? Will the rig strike oil? Will true love prevail?
