β¦ Synopsis
If you had asked computer programmer Claudia Simcoe what she expected to come of her leaving San Francisco for the California coast to open a farm-to-table marketplace, βassembles a mismatched team to investigate a murderβ would not have been her first guess.
Lori Roth is one of the tenants of the market, or she had been until Claudia learned that the hands making her βhand-dyedβ textiles belong to overseas factory workers. Claudia terminates Loriβs lease, but her hopes that this will be the last she sees of her problem tenant are dashed when she arrives at the marketplace the next morning to find Lori dead, hit over the head with a jar of pickles and strangled with a cheese wire.
The police chief thinks Claudia looks like an easy pick to be the killer, and he closes the marketplace to put the pressure on her. So, Claudia has no choice but to solve the mystery herself. Relying on the tech skills from her previous life and some help from her quirky new friends, Claudia races to save her business and herself before the killer adds her to the regionβs local, artisanal murders.
