Mystery
Divorced after twenty-three years, garden designer Liz
Clarke returns to Greenwich, Connecticut expecting to find
the haven of her childhood. Her nostalgic memories are
interrupted when her pregnant goddaughter discovers the
bloody body of the garden tour chairwoman and hysterically
calls Liz rather than 911. She shifts her focus from dirt to
detecting to save Melissa from suspicion. The kitchen garden
she designed for the annual tour gives Liz access to the
world in which the social-climbing victim Staci Hooper made
enemies. With help from her Irish lover and country music
fan Sean Healey, Liz digs into motives and alibis. Was
Lawrence Hooper planning to replace his current trophy wife
with an even younger version-the cross-country rider, Deb
Norcross? Or did his lover's sister Jean whom Staci
displaced in the garden club want revenge? Maybe Staci's own
lover Franco Rizoldi needed to quiet her in order to
safeguard his marriage. The killer continues his deadly
attacks, terrifying those Liz needs to protect, and she vows
to root out the evil invading her garden. When waiting for
the police to find the murderer feels slower than watching
grass grow, Liz sifts through the clues and uncovers a very
nasty snake in the garden indeed-one that will kill again if
necessary.
