Meet Happy DollHap to his friends. He's a LA private detective living a quiet life along with his beloved half-Chihuahua half-Terrier, George.

He's getting by just fineWhen he's not walking George or sipping tequila, Hap works nights at the Thai Miracle Spa, protecting the women who work there from clients who won't take "no" for an answer.

Until he kills a manUsually Doll avoids trouble by following his two basic rules: bark loudly and act first. But after a deadly fight with a customer, even he finds himself wildly out of his depth...
