Description: In San Francisco, 28-year-old private investigator Isabelle "Izzy" Spellman works for her parents' detective agency as does her 14-year-old sister Rae (their brother, the perfect and non-nosey one in the family, is a lawyer). The fact that the Spellmans are outlandishly dysfunctional, have trouble with boundaries, and are prejudiced against dentists (including the one Izzy starts dating) just adds to the fun--but then things take a bit of a serious turn when a family member goes missing.
