When Hope’s elderly neighbor perishes in a home fire, she can’t help but feel somewhat responsible—only the day before, Peggy Olson had called her oven, having burned a pot on the stove while she was sleeping and filling the house with smoke. In fact, she couldn’t even remember cooking—clearly, it was dangerous for the woman to live alone. But when a second body is discovered in the burned house, what appears to be a tragic accident starts to look like premeditated murder. With the help of her excitable adopted Beagle, Bigelow, Hope is determined to sort out the facts and smoke out a killer.
