A string of summertime 1928 Harvey House robberies leaves the Fred Harvey Company badly shaken. If the public finds out what the Harvey Girl waitresses are forced to do during these heists, the scandal could ruin the company. Girls are quitting their posts in embarrassment and returning home.
Wise-cracking Kansas City P.I., Lake Chancellor, is hired to stop the bandits and keep the robberies out of the newspapers. It's an impossible case. But his Harvey Girl twin-sister Stormy joins him in Vaughn, New Mexico, as does Charles Lindbergh, who is forced to land outside town with plane trouble. The two offer their help, as do the Harvey Girls in the Las Chavez Hotel lunchroom, including Grace, who makes Lake's lady friends back in K.C. seem like flat tires. But catching the bandits is only part of the challenge. How can he bring them to trial without misleading publicity about what they forced the Girls at Clovis. Lamy, and Gallup to do? And the bandits aren't acting alone. There are powerful men in Santa Fe behind them. What are they up to? What's coming next?
