Pearl Nolan always wanted to be a detective but life, and a pregnancy, got in the way and instead she built up a successful seafood restaurant in her coastal home town of Whitstable. Now, at 39, and with son Charlie away at university, Pearl finds herself suffering from empty nest syndrome - until she discovers the drowned body of local oyster fisherman Vinnie Rowe, weighted down with an anchor chain, on the eve of Whitstable's annual oyster festival. Pearl seizes the opportunity to prove her detection skills and discover the truth but she soon comes into conflict with Canterbury City police detective, Chief Inspector Mike McGuire.
