Summary

Harry and Charlie are on top of the world; their computer game is a number one best seller. After the FBI arrests the company's CEO for some questionable business practices, they are out of a job, and no one will hire them. Even with the help of a State employment specialist, the only job they can find; working for "Good House Keeping" the valley's premier domestic house cleaners. Harry and Charlie are fish out of water, as most of their co-workers are undocumented. For the first time Harry and Charlie need to learn how to clean in order to pay their rent. As Harry and Charlie acquire new skills they also learn more about the lives of their co-workers; one a well-educated coyote who spends her weekends bringing relatives and friends into the country, and Miya, a senior woman who still waits for her husband to arrive while encouraging others to find love. The cleaning crew is mistaken for a gang of criminals who might threaten the ruling criminal Family, and the consequences are more than anyone expected.
