Thriller Police Procedural | Mystery Woman Sleuth
The star of public television’s top gardening show, Louise
Eldridge is something of a celebrity. But when a dead body
is planted in her backyard, she’s in for notoriety of a
different kind...
Five years ago, Louise identified Peter Hoffman as
the “mulch murderer.” Now he’s been released from a
Virginia state mental institution. Shaken when she crosses
paths with him at a neighborhood party, Louise and family
decide to take a little R&R at the beach in the hope that
Hoffman will have moved on by the time they return. When they get back from vacation, Hoffman’s moved on all
right—but not in quite the way Louise had hoped. He’s been
missing for seven days, and Louise is the one who finds
him…buried beneath her native azalea patch. Things go from
bad to worse once the police learn that someone saw Louise
planting one of the nights she was supposed to be out of
town. But before Louise can make any serious headway,
another murder victim turns up—felled by a garden claw
covered in Louise’s fingerprints. Now, with more than just her television career in
jeopardy, Louise will have to dig up some serious clues to
bring a killer to light—before another person winds up as
fertilizer…
