Dirty Details Done Dirt Cheap:
Marge Gunderson is the extremely savvy and very pregnant Police Chief of Brainerd, Minnesota, a sleepy town that suddenly gets a little more exciting when a dead body shows up on the side of the road one morning. Marge is soon on the trail of Carl Showalter and Gaear Grimsrud, two inept criminals hired by car salesman Jerry Lundegaard to kidnap his wife so he can use the ransom money to pay off his debts. Marge goes about her investigation with efficiency and good cheer, stopping for several meal and snack breaks to satisfy her consistent pregnancy hunger along the way and aided immeasurably by her loyal and adoring husband, Norm.
