When Fenella Woods moved to the Isle of Man, one of the things she left behind in Buffalo was her former boyfriend, Jack Dawson. Now Jack is getting married, and he’s invited Fenella to help celebrate his special day. Fenella and the new man in her life, CID inspector Daniel Robinson, decide to make a two-week vacation out of the trip to Buffalo, New York.

Things start to go wrong almost immediately, as the bride’s ex-husband crashes Jack and Linda’s engagement party. When the man is discovered dead in a dumpster outside the hotel where Fenella and Daniel are staying, the pair find themselves caught up in yet another murder investigation.

Can Daniel and Fenella work out who, besides the bride and groom, wanted George Hawkins dead? Can they go sightseeing without bumping into any of the suspects? Can Fenella get through the entire wedding weekend without telling Jack’s mother exactly what she thinks of her? And can she and Daniel solve the murder in time for Jack and Linda to go on their honeymoon?
