NOTES

The late Norma Davenport was an eccentric who poked a bit of fun at her heirs with her unconventional last will and testament of "finders keepers." She managed to send her family members on a scavenger hunt for jewelry throughout her estate in artsy, high-end Laguna Beach. The bulk of her assets, however, was not immediately revealed, leaving the family in turmoil.

Then he happened to overhear a fragment of a conversation by two strangers and he thought there might be a very different motive in this case
