Julie Healy (replacement of Jackson Healy) beats people up for money. When her job leads her to P.I. Holland March, her relatively simple life turns into something more dangerous and messy. She ends up having to work with Holland in order to find a missing girl named Amelia. Together, they uncover a government conspiracy whilst slowly falling for each other along the way.

This is basically the plot of the movie The Nice Guys but I've replaced Russell Crowe's character with a woman, changed the dialogue a little and made her a love interest to Ryan Gosling's character. Just contains some fun enemies to lovers-esque tropes (lots of forbidden pining from Holland) combined with the groovy 70s aesthetic. 

*I don't own any of the characters or events that happen in the movie this is just an adaptation*
