Mae Lynn was a beautiful girl who dreamed of becoming a Hollywood star. But now she is dead—her body was pulled from the Sabine River.
Her friend Sue Ellen decides to dig up Mae’s body, burn it, and scatter the ashes in Hollywood, so that at least after death her friend will end up where she had so longed to be.
Together with her friends—Terry and Jinx—as well as the mother-prophet, Sue steals Mae’s body and sets out down the river.
But there’s one small problem: on the raft there are stolen funds, and their owners won’t stop at anything to get them back.
