Fiction. Mystery. HTML:Perfect for fans of Richard Coles, Fiona Leitch and Sarah Yarwood-Lovett, introducing a brand-new cosy crime series set in the gardening world featuring an unlikely amateur sleuth and her loveable dog.
Steph Williams has arrived at the wealthy, gated community of Beaulieu Heights ready to start her new position as head gardener. Surrounded by mansions and acres of land, it's worlds apart from the life she knows, but she's determined to give it her best shot.
If she happens to accidentally overhear private conversations while trimming the bushes, or is refused access to a locked shed, she knows not to question it - after all, gardeners should be seen and not heard.
Until notes start turning up, threatening to reveal the deepest secrets of the residents. Suddenly Steph finds herself the prime suspect, and now she must leave the shelter of the gardens behind to clear her name and save her job.
The seeds of suspicion have been planted, but the case is turning out to be no bed of roses. And when the investigation puts her life at risk, Steph is up against the clock to weed out the real culprit before it's too late...

Steph is a professional gardener who has started a new job in a closed community with multiple owners to serve. She is recently divorced from a compulsive spendthrift, has an odd relationship with her own family, and quickly becomes the recipient of confidences from multiple residents. And she has a marvelous pet dog. Things get sticky and there are several mysteries that need solving rather promptly. Convincing characters, clear world building, unusual twists and creative red herrings. I loved it!
I requested and received an EARC from Embla Books via NetGalley. Thank you! ( )
