Jake Peters is discovered shot dead in his workshop and with his chain and watch missing it looks like a robbery gone wrong. With the door locked from the inside though and no other way in, Humphrey thinks that there is more to the case than it first looked.
The Saint Marie Heritage Society is re-enacting the French invasion of the island when its president dies. At first it looks like an extreme reaction to a dodgy stew as the rest of the group have fallen ill - but when lab reports reveal there was poison in the pot, Humphrey is left wondering why the victim was the only one to end up in the mortuary.

A hen party on the island ends in tragedy when the bride-to-be is found dead in her bath the following morning.

Veteran rock band the Flowers of Progress are on the island to record a new album after years of being apart, and with a major sponsorship deal hanging in the balance, tensions are running high.

It seems the victim had a stormy relationship with his brother and fellow band member Jim, while there are rifts between the others and more than one has an axe to grind. But how could any of them have done the deed when they were all in the studio at the time? To add to Humphrey's problems, he is still finding his feet without Camille, although the arrival of new officer JP helps lighten Dwayne's workload.
