Think of a female Sherlock Holmes, but instead of Dr. Watson, Donna Rand depends on her platonic friend and neighbor, a painter named Charles, for feedback and support. Instead of Scotland Yard, she has the manpower of a major market TV news department to further her investigations. Her cat, Boomer, and transsexual neighbor, Dolores, round out her family. Instead of a seven-percent solution, she takes the edge off with a couple of hits from a joint and a glass of Chilean Chardonnay on the rooftop deck of her Beacon Hill apartment building.
