There are some hassles, but hassles are good compared to her father, Tommy Watts, showing up with the news she’s been dreading since she was sixteen. The bodies of her missing friends have finally been discovered and Tommy orders Mercy not to investigate. That’s a first and will become one of many.

She’ll be discovering secrets kept from her family and secrets kept from her fiancé. Throw in a rogue Bled family member, a baby shower and a crazy grandad and Mercy’s got about as much as she can take. But she has to have the answers to her life’s biggest questions so she’ll dig into her own background, finding out things she’d rather not know with the help of a very pregnant Fats Licata and her trusty sidekick chef supreme Aaron.
