Put-upon investigator Stanley Hastings is stranded at the Blue Frog Ponds Inn, a trendy New England bed-and-breakfast, where he is vacationing with his wife, Alice. Their cheerless room with its paper-thin walls, no TV, and a blue cartoon frog on the door is doing little for Stanley's spirits and less for his libido.

So Stanley finds himself a key witness, if not a prime suspect, in the bristly local police chief Pinehurst's case. Back home, Stanley could call upon his friends on the New York City police force to help him solve the crime, but not at Blue Frog Ponds.
