Susan Wiles is driving home from open house on a winding, mountain road late at night. Nearly falling asleep at the wheel, she is startled when she hears something hit her Prius from out of nowhere. It's a dead woman lying in the road! Susan panics. Did she hit this pedestrian? After calling for help, she notices that the body lying dead on the road is her school's assistant principal, Melissa Chadwick. Her detective daughter arrives at the scene and sensing something isn't right, discourages her mother from admitting guilt. Is this an accident, or a murder? Was Melissa killed by a coworker, someone with a grudge against her husband's recently relocated business, or someone very close to her heart? Feeling responsible, retired teacher Susan Wiles puts on her sleuthing cap, determined to find the answer. Will she find out the truth, or will tragedy once again strike the cozy New York town of Westbrook?
