But for resident Ruth Budge, the kaleidoscope of zany Finny citizens keeps her always on the lookout for trouble.

Trouble finds her first, though, as two gruesome discoveries--her deceased husband’s secret novel and a body in Finny's town-square fountain--nearly push Ruth to the edge of her sanity.

  

Ruth's grief from the loss of her husband begins to heal and she forms a new love with Monk, but will the evil she uncovers along the way remain forever buried in the Fog Over Finny's Nose?
