Sweet life on the farm turns sour when a guest mooves on to greener pastures. Permanently. Ivy was happy to put her old life at Flordale Corporation behind her, but with a recent murder tarnishing her new inn's reputation she can't afford to be choosy about paying guests. So when her former teammates from HR ask to hold their retreat at Runaway Farm and Inn, she throws down the welcome mat. When a guest turns up dead in the cow stall, it's a terrible shock. The cows are initially on the hook for the crime, but Ivy knows her girls too well to buy that. But if the cows aren't to blame, it means the killer is continuing to enjoy Ivy's hospitality and everything bucolic Clover Grove has to offer. At first Ivy agrees to stay out of the investigation at the police chief's request. When a family member becomes a suspect, however, she jumps into action with Keats, her know-it-all border collie, and Jilly, her best friend. Will they be able to find the bad apple on the Flordale HR team before the killer strikes again and Ivy is downsized… for good? Another fun page-turner in a heartwarming series that's perfect for animal lovers who dream about buying the farm.
