Jill Gardner’s store, Coffee, Books, and More, is raking in the green as her little coastal town holds a big festival for St. Patrick’s Day. But the locals aren’t exactly feeling the luck of the Irish, thanks to the rowdy behavior of some of the tourists who are pouring in.
Then a woman who just visited Jill’s shop is found dead near the shore. The fireworks display on the beach may have already happened, but the real fireworks have just begun . . .
Darla has arranged a St Patrick's Day festival at South Cove, this means for a lot of people all day drinking, so Greg has drafted in some extra police help, this does mean that he and his fellow officers can take a brief dinner break, which Jill is providing at her house, instead of Irish food she provides easy Tacos (although the lady that does the sweet treats for Coffee, books and more has provided a mint chocolate cheesecake!), Jill and her Aunt expect their busiest day to be the 18th (namely lots of people wanting coffee to sober up!) but even so they do a steady trade, one of the visitors makes an impression on Jill (she seems to be there for the fun, but not so much the oodles of alcohol!) so when she is found dead later on Jill is shocked and even more so when it turns out to be murder.
