Seven people attend the event, some human, some not- so-much. They have one thing in common: a murky past. After Abby washes the blood off her hands, she's left with her first whodunit. With the help of her partners in crime: Eric, the Viking ghost with existential issues; Dante, the local Casanova-man-witch; and Sparky, her snarky familiar, she digs into the secrets of the cove.
