H.Y.Hanna just keeps the clever and delightful mysteries coming...
Again we meet Poppy trying to get her grandmother's flower and plant stand up and running. The descriptions are wonderful and I can picture the little cottage and the small greenhouse in the garden with all the pots on counters as Poppy tries to build up her inventory and sell the flowers and plantings to the townspeople. Just watch out because someone in her path always winds up dead. Then she and the handsome neighbor, who just happens to be a mystery writer and his ex, a detective in town are on the case, finding the real culprit. A great summer read! So glad I am getting to preview all these books.
Maybe I appreciate this series because I have such a brown thumb. But it is fun to picture the garden and the flowers and the greenhouse shed with its small plants budding. I can sympathize with Poppy's mistakes and frustrations. This time there is even a discussion about chemicals and how they are bad for the planet and the plants. A serious topic.
