Summer has come to Elkview, Alaska, bringing 20 hours of sunlight every day, not to mention a surge of tourists and seasonal workers. Chef Charlie Cooke is eager for a busy yet relaxing season, but when a young man working a summer job at the local fish processing plant dies moments after walking into the Bear Claw Diner, she is quickly swept into the investigation.
Soon, through her best friend Annie Jensen, Charlie learns that another student worker at J and M Processing has disappeared, leaving more questions and fewer answers. The nearly endless sunlight gives plenty of time to search for clues, but Charlie will have to work with Annie and local reporter Chris Doucette to net the killer before anyone else gets hurt.
Summertime and the livin' is easy, or at least it should be! Sadly things are not that straightforward for Charlie Cooke. When a group of students arrive at The Bear Claw Charlie and her staff are expecting to serve them local food, NOT a trip to the morgue for one of them, now it seems there is something rotten in the State of Alaska and Charlie, reporter Chris, Inn owner Annie and of course the local Trooper need to find out who poisoned a young man and why has another gone missing?
Add in the fears that her parents are going to sell up and move from Alaska, oh and Charlie's ex (the local fish processing plant's labour lawyer) on the scene, Charlie is going to need all the help she can get, before someone decides to process her into a grave!
