Danger ... Take Two
New Bedford, Massachusetts, 1932. Kid actors Billy O'Dwyer and Virginia Grady are taking an intermission from the fast life in New York City, where they helped solve a murder but managed to shut down the movie studio they worked for. While living with Billy's family, they plan to put on a show for the neighborhood kids. But things don't unfold according to their script. Enter, stage right: a creepy skeleton, a missing treasure, and two squabbling would-be heirs.

When Billy and Virginia set out to locate the treasure, they find themselves center stage in a tangled family drama of rivalry and deceit. The cast of characters includes a hobo with big ambitions, a crooked cop gone straight, and a "fisherman" who hauls ashore something much more valuable than fish. They know somebody's putting on an act. What they don't know is that a repeat performance as detectives could bring down the final curtain...on themselves.
