When Erin Murphy takes over her family's century-old general store, she transforms it into a gourmet food market filled with local delicacies. To celebrate this new venture, Erin organizes a town festival, Festa di Pasta, featuring the culinary goods of Jewel Bay's finest. However, the festivities are soured when the shop's former manager, Claudette, is found dead behind the store on the night of the festival. With rival chef James Angelo stirring up rumors that Fresca's sauce recipes were stolen from Claudette, Erin's mother is under close scrutiny. As a result, Erin must hunt down new suspects to avoid her family and business being implicated. This mystery is woven around the culinary world of Jewel Bay, where local ingredients and homemade specialties are cherished. The story includes fresh, delicious recipes that add to its charm.
