Young criminology professor and private investigator Jodie Crooke finds herself smack in the middle of another murder mystery. Reluctantly attending a couple's cooking camp-arranged by her well-meaning partner, Josh-she quickly realizes the hosts aren't the happy hippy pair they pretend to be.
By day two, simmering marital tensions boil over into murder.
As the police begin their investigation, Jodie inserts herself into the case and ropes in her favourite ally: an enigmatic mystery writer, now imprisoned and terminally bored. The two begin to collaborate-unofficially, of course-marking the beginning of what may be Jodie's most unconventional partnership yet.
The case unravels into a tangled web of infidelity and a love triangle that might just be a square. But as Jodie gets closer to the truth, she finds herself on the radar of the killer, a killer whose hinges are dangerously unscrewed. Can her unique ability to read auras help her solve the case before it's too late?
