Former actress Becca Ransom lived her dream in Hollywood for seven years before returning to her hometown of Larch Haven, known as the Venice of North America. The Vermont town has canals instead of roads, gondolas instead of cars, and charming cottages plucked from the pages of a fairy tale. Its also where Becca is pursuing her newest passion as a chocolatier at True Confections, the chocolate shop owned by her grandparents, Lolly and Pops. While Beccas testing new flavors and reconnecting with old friends, the town is gearing up for the annual Gondola Races, popular with both residents and tourists, with one exception. Local curmudgeon Archie Smith wants nothing more than to keep tourists away from Larch Haven. Hes determined to derail this years event and does his best to stir up trouble for the organizers, including Beccas grandfather. Following a heated argument with Pops, Archie is found floating facedown in the canal, and Pops finds himself in hot water as one of the top suspects. Beccas determined to clear her grandfathers name, but when the case heats up, she could be facing a sticky end.
