Piper can't get into the excitement flying around Cloverdale about the Italian soccer team coming to town. But she won't be passing up the opportunity to be part of the events.

When the soccer team arrives, not everyone is excited to see Raffaele Conti, the team manager. Conti spent a year in Cloverdale in high school and managed to make more than a few enemies. One of them is Piper's dill supplier, Gerald Standley. Standley is also one of the biggest supporter of the Cloverdale All Stars.

When Conti is found dead, Piper is asked by several people to help find the killer. Afraid of losing the fresh dill her provides and believing in Gerald's innocence, Piper sets out to find the truth.

The more she learns about Conti, the clearer it is why someone wanted him dead. He was a despicable character who left people damaged in his wake.

The identity of the killer is a surprise and leaves the readers a little sad as they learn the motive. Fans will love the recipes as well as the mystery.
