Love turns deadly in Scumble River, and Skye is caught between a rock and a heart place.

Love is deadly.

Stupid Cupid is making school psychologist Skye Denison-Boyd regret returning to work after her maternity leave. It starts with an emergency school lockdown, continues with her godfather's arrest by the state police, and ends with a dead body!

It's every teacher and administrator's worst nightmareβ€”a school shooter lockdown. It's even worse for Skye because she's trapped in a tiny room with the district's creepy superintendent, Dr. Wraige, while they wait for the all-clear.

When Dr. Wraige turns up dead in his home just a short time later, is it a coincidence, or something more? Skye joins her police chief husband, Wally, in an investigation that becomes more complicated by the minute. With a dead boss and a mysterious killer on the loose, Skye is caught between a rock and a heart placeβ€”but she won't give up until Scumble River is safe once again.
