La sélection est rude. Mais dans la mesure où la ville vient de connaître son premier meurtre, qui de mieux qu’une enquêtrice de la crim’ comme nouvelle recrue ? Cependant, Casey découvre vite que ce crime n’est pas le seul secret de ce havre de paix et que Diana et elle sont peut-être plus en danger ici qu’elles ne l’étaient avant...
