Reviews
Pat Foy is not the brightest penny in the bank, yet she has an intuitive naivete that enables her to create some good out of her husband's conviction for fraudulent corporate accounting. A timely plot treated from the perspective, tho not the voices, of three very different characters. Mystery is only a minor element and the ending kind of drifts without a real conclusion - much like real life.
disappointing. The ending didn't really tie up the story well for me. Frank goes to jail for business crime while boss doesn't. Wife, Pat goes around giving money to those who lost.
