A Disgraced Iron Chef. A Boy-Band Star Found Dead. A Troublesome Sheriff Ex.
Sadie Cruz, once an Iron Chef champion, watched her career implode overnight when a scandal turned her into an industry pariah. With nothing left, she returned to her hometown, scraping by on a handful of food trailers with only one tenant left to keep her afloat.
That fragile peace shatters when a member of the legendary ’90s boyband BoyzTone is found dead inside the trailer. Overnight, the spotlight swings back to Sadie—and this time it’s aimed squarely at her as the prime suspect.
Making things worse, that one rented trailer is immediately seized by the town sheriff, Lex Hayes—the man whose ring she refused ten years ago. He now seems determined to block her at every turn.
With her reputation ruined and her livelihood locked behind crime-scene tape, Sadie has no choice but to investigate the murder herself. The sheriff may stand in her way, but if she wants to clear her name—and salvage her last chance at a life she can live—she’ll have to uncover the truth before her life is burnt to a crisp for good.
