Last year was eventful, to say the least. Alice and Iris were the talk of the town after they teamed up to solve the murder of Brooke Donovan. If it wasn’t for this unlikely duo, the wrong person would almost certainly be sitting in prison. The Castle Cove police aren’t exactly great at solving crimes.

Now Alice is impatient for a new case. And as fate would have it, on the night of the annual dance at Levy Castle she walks right into a crime scene. Rebecca Kennedy, on the ground, in a pool of blood. And standing over Kennedy? One of Alice’s ex-friends - Helen Park. Of course, the police are sure it’s an open-and-shut case.

But Castle Cove is full of secrets, and Alice and Iris are about to uncover one of its biggest - and most dangerous - secrets of all.
