In the Niagara Falls region, January marks ice wine season, but Charming Books owner Violet Waverly is still haunted by a past heartbreak. With the annual midnight grape-harvest festival approaching, Violet is determined to avoid it, especially since her ex will be there. However, her Grandma Daisy has other plans, arranging for the shop to host a book signing for celebrity sommelier Belinda Perkins at the festival. The event takes a dark turn when Violet discovers Belinda dead in the vineyard, a grape harvest knife in her chest. Belinda, who left Cascade Springs after a fallout with her three sisters, is at the center of a brewing family conflict. One sister, Lacey Dupont, Violet's high school friend, attends the signing hoping to reconcile but ends up in a public argument with Belinda, making her the prime suspect in the murder. Convinced of Lacey's innocence, Violet seeks help from her magical bookshop, which directs her to Louisa May Alcott's *Little Women*. As she tries to unravel the connection between the March and Perkins sisters, Violet risks becoming as cold as the ice surrounding her. Joined by Grandma Daisy, Emerson the tuxedo cat, and Faulkner the crow, Violet dives into the mystery in this enchanting third installment of the Magical Bookshop series.
