Overview
A scoop of ice cream, a dash of danger, and a murder that chills to the bone.
When a new ice cream shop, Churnt Up, opens in the idyllic beach town of St. Marin’s, bookstore owner Harvey Beckett is ready to welcome the owner with open arms and a hearty appetite. But the grand opening turns deadly when a body is discovered in the shop’s freezer, sending a chill through the Memorial Day weekend festivities.
The shop’s owner, Poppy, is clearly terrified, and not just because of the corpse in her store. She’s hiding from a dangerous past that has followed her to the Eastern Shore. As Harvey and her fiercely loyal friends rally to protect the newcomer, they uncover a sinister plot far more tangled than a single murder.
With her police-deputy husband, Jared, leading the official investigation, Harvey relies on her wit and community ties to chase down the truth. But when the threats escalate from menacing glares to terrifying break-ins, she realizes the danger is closer than anyone imagined. In a town where everyone knows your name, a deadly secret is churning just beneath the surface.
