Charlotte is very busy working and recuperating. But when she gets invited out to Quovadicon to help tidy up a desk, she decides to go. After being run off the road on the way to Quovadicon, she meets the odd collection of employees including: the airhead receptionist; an office shark out to replace the current office manager; and the ditzy IT staffer, who is also the owner's son and who also seems to be in love with Barbara. Barbara is the owner of the messy desk. It was also Barbara who ran Charlotte off the road.

From official release/information:

Product Description: Nothing makes Charlotte Adams happier than freeing people from clutter—and she boasts a waiting list of sloppy clients. Her free time has been taken up solving fatally untidy cases. Her latest task: a woman has hired her to organize a coworker's hopelessly cluttered desk. But when the miss behind the mess goes missing, workplace tempers rise. Now, Charlotte must open a brand-new folder—one she hopes won't be filed under M for murder.
