Charley Scott is thrilled to be running a summer pop-up gallery in cottage country. Returning to the lakeside village, not on vacation but as an artist, she's determined to turn her hobby into a career.

But, beneath the surface of this peaceful town, darkness lurks. There's a history.

Local chocolatier, Matt Thorn, is struggling with his father's death and his legacy of deception. As Matt plans to expose his father's secrets, a local is found dead, the result of eating Matt's chocolates.

Luckily, art is all about perspective and Charley's always had a keen eye. Can she see past the obvious and find the killer?
