She's 84. She's an ordained minister. And she's a licensed private investigator who just found her second body of the week.
Welcome to Centerville, California, the kind of small town where everyone waves, the church ladies gossip faster than the internet, and nothing bad ever happens.
Until it does.
When Reverend Cassie Mulholland's beloved cockatiel, Rocky, dies suddenly and suspiciously, she chalks it up to old age, his and hers. But when her neighbor's husband collapses the same week, and the coroner rules it cyanide poisoning, Cassie can't ignore the pattern anymore. And when grieving widow Corrie becomes the prime suspect, Cassie's faith and her rusty PI license get put to the test.
With her protégée Vanessa, her loyal dog Biscuit, and a suspiciously convenient friendship with the town's vet in tow, Cassie starts digging through Centerville's tidy, picket-fenced secrets. What she finds is a lot messier than casserole dishes and Sunday sermons.
