Bad luck is worse than a plague in Wrencliff Hollow and Vivian Locksmeade has had her fair share.

With help from her beloved friend Queenie and detective ex-boyfriend Danel, Vivian embarks on a journey of justice, salvation, and freedom. She only hopes old feelings remain bottled and save Danel from a similar deadly fate.
