EXIT LAUGHNIG is a laugh-out-loud fun-filled story of three middle-aged women who are all feeling lost when the fourth of their bridge club has up and died on them. For nearly three decades the three of them have supported and encouraged each other and life just doesn't seem complete without their fourth. One of them has the bright (and illegal) idea of “borrowing” their friend's ashes—from the funeral home—and bringing them to the weekly bridge night. What ensues is a wild ride of an evening as the three bare their hidden souls and explore a whole new way of approaching life—while they have it. Add a distraught daughter who has been stood up one too many times by a boyfriend, and a visit from the law, and plenty of beverage therapy, and the night is one they—and you—will never forget.
