Our Shelf Talker
Something Missing answers the question, "Now, where did I put that other earring?"OCD Martin stocks his pantry shelves by stealing - but only items that his "clients" would never miss - a roll of toilet paper, half-used tube of toothpaste, half a pair of earrings. When he decides to anonymously help a client's marriage, his carefully-ordered world becomes messy. Completely funny and charming.

Description
A career criminal with OCD tendencies and a savant-like genius for bringing order to his crime scenes, Martin considers himself one of the best in the biz. After all, he's been able to steal from the same people for years on end--virtually undetected. Of course, this could also be attributed to his unique business model--he takes only items that will go unnoticed by the homeowner. After all, who in their right mind would miss a roll of toilet paper here, a half-used bottle of maple syrup there, or even a rarely used piece of china buried deep within a dusty cabinet?
Martin has developed a friendship of sorts with them and as such, he decides to interfere more in their lives--playing the part of a rather odd guardian angel--even though it means breaking many of his twitchy neurotic rules.
