A surprise inheritance. A stormy arrival and a body in the greenhouse.

Storm stranded on Lakeview’s shore, in the quaint village of Willowby; Ivy Rowe rescues a scared Sheltie named "Lacey" and takes shelter at the pet-friendly bed and breakfast.

By morning, real estate shark Francine Drake is found dead.

The town's constable calls it an "accident"—but Ivy spots unexplained details—flipping her from stranded guest to investigator.

Missing rings, a single muddy footprint, gardening shears disappear, and threats sealed with a tidy V.

The duo digs into Simone Bell, who burned a predatory contract after one of Francine’s ultimatums—and Sunny Sloane, whom Francine threatened with staff cuts.

Then a letter addressed to Ivy—neat, unsigned, and sealed with the same tidy V—warns she's next. Ivy must solve the case fast or risk becoming the killer’s final note.
