At Gram's Country Cooking School in Broken Rope, Missouri, Betts Winston and Gram are helping students prepare the perfect dishes for the Southern Missouri Showdown, a cook- off that draws lots of summer visitors. Then they discover the body of local theater owner Everett Morningside in the school's supply room-- and Everett's widow points the finger at Gram. Now Betts must clear Gram's name while keeping the cook- off preparations on schedule.
