The people of Crozet, Virginia are busy as postmistress Harry Haristeen's 20th high school reunion is coming up, along with her good friend's Miranda Hogendobber's 50th high school reunion.  Things take a scary turn as more and more members of Harry's class are murdered and no one seems to know why...at first.  As Harry and her lovable animals (cats Mrs. Murphy and Pewter and corgi Tee Tucker) dig deeper into the lives of the murdered classmates, secrets are uncovered and more lives are at risk.  Someone is doing anything and everything they can to either exact revenge or ensure that the past stays buried.  Readers should be aware that the reason behind the murders are of a darker nature than past books and this particular Mrs. Murphy Mystery takes a darker tone than the previously books.
