Dogwood trees are blooming, birds are singing, and spring has finally made it to Riley Creek. Martha, newly elected president of the Retailers' Collective, has convinced the village to host a First Annual Nature Writers' Retreat.
Just as Riley Creek tries to get back on its feet, the keynote speaker turns up dead as a dodo, the murder is pinned on one of Martha's BFFs, and Martha is pressed back into service to solve the case.
Can Martha track down the killer and spring her gal pal before she's sent to the slammer for good?
