Madeline Smith has a vivid imagination. But she's not imagining things when Dr. Tollman suddenly drops dead at her writers' group meeting. She's convinced the professor's death is a murder and sets out to solve it.

As she visits each member of the group, she learns that a couple of them have skeletons in their closets. And, as her search for the killer expands, Madeline discovers that someone sinister is actually on her trail.

Thankfully, Officer Brayden MacLean of the Cape Breton Regional Police has been dispatched to protect her - and he's not bad to look at. Can an immature, shy bookworm have a future together with a dynamic, outgoing cop? It's hard to imagine.

And ... can they team up to catch the killer before he catches up to Madeline?
