An incredible story of a legacy set in south-west France.

Aunt Lucie is a real pain in the neck. While she wasn’t exactly a saint when alive, now that she’s dead, she’s making life even more miserable for her family. Her will is crystal clear: to collect the inheritance, nephews and their families have to move into her ramshackle house! But Aunt Lucie has another surprise up her sleeve: a mad treasure hunt, ankle-deep in muck. Welcome to rural France!
Things heat up for her darling nephews as they get caught up in this unforgettable adventure. How far will they go to get their hands on the jackpot?
Comical situations, funny dialog and dramatic turns of events come fast and furious, masterfully orchestrated by dear Aunt Lucie.
Thrilling to the last, unexpected climax!
