The factory floor is heady with excitement but plans are dealt a blow when a much loved staff member is the victim of a poisoning incident.

Everyone is under suspicion, which only adds to Reenie Calder’s woes, anxious that her new promotion has only made her stick out even more like a sore thumb. Can she and her friends, Mary and Diana, get their heads together and find the malicious troublemaker before something unthinkable happens?
