Liz Duncan is a chaos magnet. Wherever she goes, disaster follows. Fortunately, she is also a news reporter, and winds up in the middle of the storm. She finally takes a vacation to a neighboring town to visit her friend Carrie, the mayor of Oceanside. After going to the beach, she locks horns with the Sheriff and local minister, who gives her a ticket for public indecency for sunbathing topless at the beach. This leads to an investigation that spirals out of control involving smuggling, drug running, covert ops, and mind control. The story is told tongue-in-cheek, however the situations and technology are very much real.
