Former NYPD forensics expert Celia Strong thought she’d left the world of crime behind when she opened an ice cream shop in idyllic Blue Lake Village in the Adirondack Mountains…
Summertime in Blue Lake Village.
Celia arrives with her teenage daughter Katie to start a new life as the owner of Ye Olde Ice Cream Shoppe.
As Celia settles in, she bonds with the other local business owners on ‘the block’—eccentrics Helen and Henry from the antiques store, the unflappable Lorna at the history museum, and good-natured Cal at the country diner.
It’s just a typical summer Friday when a tourist bus pulls up with seven passengers on board, and before long one of them ends up dead on the bus with a knife in his neck.
The six remaining passengers each hide a secret. Is one of them the killer? With a new and inexperienced acting sheriff on duty, it’s up to Celia—with the help of the rest of ‘the block’—to solve the case.
