Ponderosa Pines used to be the safest place on earth...
Lately, though, best friends Chloe LaRue and EV Torrence are beginning to wonder if their formerly sleepy town has caught a ride in a handbasket—with a one-way ticket to someplace hot.
After attorney Stacey Hawthorne is brutally attacked just inside town lines, Chloe and EV launch a new investigation—one that exposes a dangerous web of fraud, secrets, and someone willing to do whatever it takes to keep the past buried.
When it turns out Stacey was hiding more than a few skeletons of her own, the case gets personal. Especially when whispers start linking it back to the same blackmail plot that nearly tore the town apart.
As Chloe and EV follow the trail—through knitting circles, nosy neighbors, and one particularly cranky parakeet—they begin to suspect the attack wasn't random at all.
Now, someone's cleaning house. And Chloe and EV might be next on the list.
