Retirees and best friends, Marge and Joey are investigating mysterious events at Rutherford Mansion.

Note from the author:

The Bumfuzzle and Cattywampus; Unlikely Detectives series emerged from a conversation about unusual words. Eccentric seniors, Marge and Joey mirror their surnames, defined by Merriam-Webster Dictionary as:



Bumfuzzle: Transitive verb. Chiefly dialectal: Confuse, Perplex, Fluster.(Marge's round about speech sometimes makes her almost incomprehensible.)



Cattywampus: Adjective, Dialectal: Askew, Awry, Cater-cornered.(An old war injury has left Joey slightly shorter on one side of his body, causing him to tilt slightly. Although physically fit, he uses a walker to assist him with his balance.)
