The Guncle meets Every Time I Go On Vacation Someone Dies in a fun, quirky mystery following a spoiled nepo baby who is forced to work at a struggling summer camp, but when a local legend turns into a real mystery things quickly go haywire, forcing him to solve the murder before there are even deadlier consequences.
 
Mikey Hartford IV has it all. The posh apartment, a group of friends who love hi...s private jet, and an inheritance set to kick in on his thirtieth birthday. But when his father discovers another one of his rash purchases, the elder Hartford changes the terms of his trust. And unless Mikey can prove that he can have a positive contribution on the world—one that doesn't involve throwing cash at his problems—he won't see another cent.
 
That's how Mikey finds himself at Camp Lore, a struggling camp in upstate New York, volunteering for the summer. But Mikey isn't sure he can survive camp, let alone the gaggle of twelve-year-old misfits who won't leave his side. And things go from bad to worse when his campers become obsessed with "the legend of the missing counselor," a local campfire story set at the strange, abandoned cabin on the grounds. But what's the harm in letting them investigate? It's just a ghost story after all...
 
But what starts as a legend soon becomes dangerously real when Mikey's campers discover clues that point to the hidden dangers, and murders, hidden beneath Camp Lore. And with the camp director threatening to shut down by the end of the summer, Mikey soon finds himself wrapped up in a shockingly real murder mystery. And with death on the line and crooks coming out of the woodwork, what better way to earn his inheritance than by solving a true crime?
