Tensions between Agatha and James run high ahead of a smooth jazz night at Barfield Hall. Then a woman James was seen arguing with turns up dead at Agatha's cottage, and James disappears. Working with James's sister, can Agatha find her love and clear his name?

To take her mind off her breakup with James, Agatha and the gang venture out to the Winter Fayre, where the highlight of the evening is the roast pig on a spit. The event turns into a crime scene, however, when the main course turns out to be a tattooed human torso. Newly promoted Bill is put in charge of the investigation, but he receives strict instructions not to discuss it with Agatha.
