Now that Detective Quentin Perry and his family have left Bennett Falls, Joanna Coffee thinks she can leave her past behind her and start fresh with her new husband, Camden Turner.

But the flower shop next to Cup of Jo has a new owner, and she winds up dead on her first day of work. While the victim just moved to town, she had plenty of enemies. So many that the new police detective doesn't believe Jo didn't hear or see something that will help him solve this case.

Once again, Jo will have to don her detective's hat if she doesn't want to wind up a suspect in the eyes of the Bennett Falls Police Department.
