Synopsis
Cleaning wiz Sky Taylor asserts that “messes are messes, and none are any good.” But after inadvertently scrubbing an entire crime scene clean—before anyone even knows there’s one to detect—it seems Sky’s just created a mess of her own.
In her mid-thirties and recently widowed, Sky Taylor left the big city to make cozy Pigeon Cove, a hamlet off the northern Massachusetts coast, her permanent home. Nestled among B&Bs and New England pals, Sky is adapting back to single life—with a popular newspaper column and her knack for creative cleaning increasingly in demand.
Then she discovers Abel Monahan, a long-time patron of the Millwood Inn, permanently checked-out. Dead. And in a town of familiar faces, newcomers are sprouting like bad weeds. Now Sky’s juggling the police chief’s questions with questionable advances from the newest crime reporter in town. But she’s got her own scouring to do, uncovering dirty dealings before they leave a permanent ring on her squeaky clean town.
