Dev Haskell receives a phone call from an old friend. It's feared Dev's old high school flame, Maddie McGuire, has fallen through the ice along the Mississippi River and can't be found. Dev hasn't seen her since she married ne'er do well, Colton Ferral. After attending the memorial service and reconnecting with her sisters, he comes away with more questions than answers.

Local crime lord, Tubby Gustafson, has some questions for Dev, too. Amazingly, Colton Ferral's name comes up. Of course, what better time to offer a spare bedroom on Airbnb, not to mention a surprise guest who arrives on the scene back and enjoy another delightful Dev Haskell tale.

A wonderful read to remind you that, actually, your life is pretty good! As always, Morton, Dev's Golden Retriever, provides a dose of sanity.
