The abduction of toddler pageant princess Lindy Bobo panics everyone in the city of Wichita, Kansas-- except the dealers at The Heart of America Antique Mall. They're too preoccupied by the postcards, perfume bottles, Barbies, vinyl records, and kitschy neon beer signs that they collect and sell. And now they're consumed by the impending arrival of Mark and Grant from the famed antiques television show Pickin' Fortunes, who are planning to film an episode at The Heart of America and secretly may be the last best hope of saving the mall from bankruptcy. As the mall becomes implicated in Lindy's disappearance, will Mark and Grant be scared away from all of the drama or will they arrive in time to save The Heart of America from going under? -- adapted from jacket
