On most days, Wisconsin farmer Lawrence (Shaver) Ketch works hard and fast in the mornings so he can be at his mother's bar in the village of Wonder by noon for lunch. His routine is disrupted when a tragic accident at a nearby lake kills two teenage boys. An old nemesis would like to hold Shaver's brother JJ, the county sheriff, responsible for the tragedy. Shaver knows that JJ has done no wrong and would like to help prove it. Steve Hardy, Shaver's fellow bar patron, also believes in JJ's innocence. A mysterious death at Steve's business turns out to be a murder. Shaver, JJ, and Steve are not suspects, but they have different reasons for wanting the murder solved. Many meals that Shaver enjoys are described, and insight into the life of a farmer is explored. Before the murder is solved, a bit of humor and some romance for one of the characters holds interest.
