Our purposely unnamed private detective is stationed in San Francisco and goes out to Sacramento County to investigate an arson at the Thornburgh house on behalf of the Continental Detective Agency's client, an insurance company. The insurance policy was recent and the company wants to be sure it was legitimate before covering the claim. It turns out to be anything but straight forward!
