With the Tasty Tomato Tournament just days away, the small town of Martha's Point is all abuzz. This is the first year without a sure winner, and the competition is fierce to gain the judges' approval, even before the tournament starts. But when Ivy finds one of those judges dead in a shed across the street, things go from bad to worse. All she wanted was seven glorious, kid-free days of messing around with her husband. Instead, she's going to be tracking down a killer, staying out of the way of a pickle-obsessed farmer, and dodging the new cop who seems out for her blood.
