Recent murders have unbalanced Charlotte Adams's life and ruined her favorite footwear. The professional organizer and accidental sleuth is relieved that a killing in normally quiet Woodbridge has nothing to do with her. Nothing at all. Really. Charlotte agrees to help with an awkward office situation involving a stunningly messy desk. Seems fun and harmless. But when the owner of the messy desk vanishes, Charlotte is fired. The police are strangely tight-lipped. As Charlotte digs around to discover what's going on, she stumbles over another body and becomes a target herself. How messy is that?

Dogs and organizing tips included.
