Welcome to Litsy!

Shoeburn Ruffet is forced into finding the whereabouts of a business magnate's lost piece of jewellery. Regina Wendle, the most powerful woman in Welt Foot and the business magnate, will unleash bees, sink phoney submarines, and sabotage helicopter outings until her necklace is found. Shoeburn will do slightly less exciting stuff to figure out what the necklace's true purpose is. The necklace has something to do with him. It has something to do with his father. It may even have something to do with his dead mother, who could or could not be Regina Wendle. Shoeburn does a few heroic things in this story amidst all his blundering, but he's not really a hero. He just finds himself unable to say 'no' in a situation that isn't about a missing necklace but is instead one in which a necklace goes missing. He'd just rather not be there at all.
