Synopsis: Bear In The Woods

Aidan Bear is a fifty year old comic book store owner as well as a private eye. Most of his PI work is spent sitting in darkened cars, outside darkened homes, waiting for the tale-tell noises of love making on the microphones and cameras he’s hidden inside. He captures, in digital form, the essence of two people having an affair and then gives this information to the innocent party, their partners. Aidan longs to learn enough to eventually parlay his experience, as a PI, into a successful string of novels, which he calls “The Bear Series”. Soon, Aidan get’s his opportunity. On a weekend getaway, Aidan travels with some friends to Jack Shaw’s house, a cute little mansion sitting on it’s own private lake. At first everything seems fine, everyone’s loose and laughing, having a good time, but then the mood takes a turn for the worse when two of the friends are caught having too much fun together, in the laundry room. One of whom is Jack’s boyfriend, Carl. The next morning Jack is nowhere to be found and the group wonders if he was so upset that he left them there alone. Then, later that day, they find the body of their host, Jack Shaw, lifeless, on the floating platform, in the middle of the lake. They’re out of cell range and they find the car’s tampered with. Now, miles away from civilization, it’s up to Aidan to put his small gumshoes on and try to figure out who the killer is, before he strikes again.
