When a dead body shows up that wasn't on the lesson plan, a homeschooling mom is the prime suspect.

Rainbow Bailey is happy with her life, homeschooling her five children. Small town life suits her well and she spends contented days juggling her household, science projects, helping her husband, her friends, and planning what comes next.

What she didn't plan on was murder.

Rainbow is shocked to discover a body in a dumpster. It not only ruins her mom's night out, but turns her entire world upside down. Things get even bleaker for her when the struggling and frustrated police chief can't find a better suspect than Rainbow.

Terrified by the prospect of a lifetime in prison for a crime she didn't commit, it's up to her and her children to find the true culprit before the killer strikes again.

Will Rainbow and her curious kids crack the case, or will Rainbow take the blame for this heinous crime?
