Million-dollar lotto winners, ex-convicts, an internationally famous pop diva, and a Belgian mime are just a few of the outrageous characters descending on the French Riviera. And they're having a party.

Americans Desiree Brown Simon and her husband David Simon live a relatively quiet life in the south of France while they churn out their respective best-selling novels. But when they meet the famous American singer Amelia Jackson, they are propelled into a world of wealth, high society, and gossip. They interact with a group of East Somarian kidnappers, a psychologist, and wealthy socialites, not to mention the infamous Madame Arthuretta Bozell, who has created a discreet lifestyle makeover service called Ladyfingers.

Follow their antics as they all bluff and charm their way through a whirlwind of social gatherings, eventually converging at the wedding banquet of a famous film director at the Negresco Hotel. Ladyfingers gives a whole new meaning to American foreign relations!
