Synopsis: Former homicide detective Brad Lyon has happily settled into retirement with his wife, Ashleigh, and their new business: crafting artisan teddy bears. They even take their ‘Lyon’s Tigers and Bears’ on the road to Baltimore, site of a big-time bear show.
But ex-cop Brad senses something sinister when he witnesses a domestic dispute between the couple behind the hugely popular line of ‘Cheery Cherub Bears.’ And a second scuffle soon has the bear aficionados talking: Another designer has accused the award-winning couple of stealing ideas for their furry angel bears. The tension is enough to give one of the designers an asthma attack, but after using her inhaler, she clutches at her throat—and dies. Baltimore brass deems it a death by natural causes. But Brad and Ash’s suspicions have already taken wing...
