Poker Face

When a close friend of hers meets an untimely end, Charlie Cale, a casino cocktail waitress with an uncanny knack for identifying lies, is determined to unravel these mysterious events -- even if it endangers her own life.

Wounded and on the run, Charlie is forced to make a pit stop in desolate New Mexico, where she tries to clear the name of a trucker framed for the murder of a local.

Short on cash and saddled with an ill-tempered dog, Charlie takes a job at a family-run Texas BBQ joint run by a kindly pitmaster and his brash brother. She proves a quick study when it comes to the art of smoking meats, but soon finds she’ll need to use her finely tuned skills of perception to sniff out the truth behind a carefully staged murder.

Saddled up with a trailer full of merch, Charlie goes on tour across the Midwest with once-popular metal band Doxxxology, a motley crew of has-been rockers who believe they can return to their glory days – all they need is a new hit song to catapult them to fame. But when a member of the band dies in a freak accident, Charlie can’t help but wonder if one of them is willing to kill to get back into the limelight.

While working at the Mossy Oaks Retirement Home, Charlie befriends two rebellious old ladies still living in the wild-child spirit of the '70s. They seem harmless until a dark glimpse of their past bubbles to the surface and a mysterious resident dies. Charlie’s suspicions are aroused, but her prime suspects might have the perfect alibi.

Two washed-up television stars seek out the spotlight by staging a one-night-only performance at the dinner theater where Charlie works. Charlie is no fan of the theater, but she's forced to pay attention when a tragic death occurs on stage. Charlie begins to suspect that one of the play's feuding stars could have played a role… in murder.
