The spring fog has not lifted off the bay, and already the Blue Heron Inn is trembling. Five wealthy college friends have taken over Ava Oosterling's newly opened bed-and-breakfast for a week of chocolate facials, wine, and fudge, and they have not stopped arguing since they arrived. They call themselves the Fudge Divas; Ava's grandfather has a few choicer names for them. Then one of the women is found in the water below the bluff, drifting beside Grandpa Gil's beloved boat, and the blood on the deck has the sheriff looking straight at him. Now Ava's dream inn is a crime scene, her grandfather is the prime suspect, and the only way to save him is to uncover why five lifelong friends would guard the same secret for thirty-five years. In a village where everyone knows everyone, the warmest welcome can hide the coldest heart. Ava has stirred up trouble before, but she has never had this much to lose.
