Meg Corey has moved to small town Massachusetts to renovate a house for her mother not realizing the amount of time, energy, and money that is going to be put into the project. Her first problem occurs when her septic system goes bad, and she has to replace it. (The good thing that comes out of that is she meets the plumber, Seth Chapin.) The second problem is that her several month ago manipulative ex-boyfriend shows up on her doorstep trying to purchase the property for a commercial development. The third problem happens when the ex shows up in dead in her newly dug system. The fourth problem is the detective on the case who knows that Meg just has to be the murderer, so it's up to Meg to determine the killer before the detective on the case puts her in jail.

This book is somewhat predictable, but that is okay. By the middle of the book, the reader knows that Meg is going to try to do something with her orchard and that she will not be leaving town, but again, that is okay. There is a bit of romance, no gore, some humor, and interesting characters which makes a good lead into the next book.
