Newly married animal rights activist Sierra Nakamura Davis is coming face to face with her worst nightmare: breaking the news she eloped to her ultra-opinionated tiger mom. Her perfectionist parents have planned a vow renewal ceremony at Sierra's lush childhood home but a neighborhood dog ruins the rehearsal dinner when he shows up toting what appears to be a fresh human bone. Between the dog, a nosy neighbor and an old flame turning up at all the wrong times, Sierra hunts for answers. Surprises abound at every turn as Sierra embarks on a journey of discovery that leads to more than just who did the crime.
