The Plot
It's the quarterly meeting of the
Gazillionaire Girls Group, an exclusive club whose membership is comprised
of successful women - all of whom made it big without relying upon the
other gender. The hostess for this unique gathering is Bertha Brothert,
the entertainment guru whose upscale line of products appeals to the
nouveau riche.
Brothert's yacht, "The Perfection,"
is the scene of the meeting and a special guest is present to both
entertain the Group's members and to predict their futures. Famed
fortuneteller, Madame Magda, pulls out her crystal ball and tells the
assembled clique of distinguished daughters of destiny that many good
things await them.
Suddenly, though, a shocked
expression crosses the mystic's face as she shudders in horror. The
crystal ball, she proclaims, is emphatic in predicting that someone will
soon die.
The next morning, true to her words,
the body of one of the women is found floating nearby the yacht. After
investigating the incident, police quickly determine that evidence points
toward homicide. Someone's career has been suddenly and permanently halted
by a killer.
