Sun City, Arizona: where old people go to die. At least that's what Milo, a retired border patrolman, thinks when he first arrives in the palm- and orange-tree-lined retirement community. He takes up photography to wile away his remaining days. Before long, he is fighting and flirting with Claire, a young widow who is working through her trauma while volunteering at the zoo. He meets Sax, a former cop and the bartender at the Brass Monkey, and Sax's favorite barfly, Sondra. Unable to turn off their suspicious natures, Milo and Sax see danger and intrigue simmering just beneath the serene picture-postcard settings of Arizona. And life will never be the same for any of them!
