In the heart of a celebration, a dark secret festers.

The Dogwood Festival, held each year in the small town of Dogwood Springs, Missouri, is more than just a special event. It's a cozy haven of springtime charm, live music, and handmade crafts that draws tourists from all around. Libby Ballard, the dedicated director of the local history museum, is thrilled to be a first-time member of the festival steering committee.

As the festival approaches, the air buzzes with excitement.

But secrets simmer beneath the surface, and tragedy strikes when a fellow member of the steering committee is found murdered at the festival grounds.

When the police zero in on the wrong suspect and dismiss any connection to the festival, Libby realizes she must step in. With her loyal golden retriever by her side, Libby dives headfirst into a sea of suspects, each with their own motives, each a piece in a puzzle waiting to be solved.

Can Libby and Bella find their way through the labyrinth of lies and unmask the villain before another life is lost?
