But when Melbalean winds up dead and Betty is accused of the murder, Pepper is thrust into one role she never expected - she must complete a list of chores that keeps her town running.
Pepper has her hands full - she must ensure the safety of her town, try to clear Betty's name, and make sure no one else winds up a victim of the Magnolia Cove murderer. Can she do it? Or will she become the next victim?
