Lt. Columbo has decided to take a much needed vacation. His cases are caught up and his superiors are demanding that he take some time off. He’s decided to join an expedition that is going to explore ancient Incan sites. His friend, Lucy May got him to come along because, sugar plum, archeology is her passion. Also among the group is a wacky gal who says she can see ghosts, a gallery owner who used to be a soap opera star, and the expedition assistant who seems to be afraid of everything. But uh, just a minute. just one more thing….Could there be a real treasure involved here that only certain people know about? Is there something worth killing for on this trip? Is there really a curse attached to the whole expedition? He will definitely need your help. You’ll want to join this hilarious and madcap crew. Don’t miss it! |
