When Poppy goes from complacent retiree to penniless widow
in a matter of weeks, the idea of spending her golden
years as the biggest charity case in Palm Springs renders
her speechless. With no real skills and nothing left to
lose, Poppy uses her obsession with true crime shows to
start a career as a private eye…
But after opening the Desert Flowers Detective Agency with
help from her two best friends, Violet and Iris, Poppy
realizes that age brings wisdom, not business—until she
convinces her daughter’s handsome boyfriend, Matt, to pose
as the face of the agency. It’s not long before Matt’s
irresistible act snags a client desperate to retrieve
priceless jewelry burglarized from an aging actress at the
Palm Leaf Retirement Village. Or before Poppy stumbles
upon the bloodied body of the victim’s arch rival…
In a flash, Poppy’s innocent detective gig is upstaged by
a dangerous murder investigation riddled with slimy
suspects and unspeakable scandal. As she and her team
uncover the truth, Poppy must confront the secrets about
her late husband’s past and swiftly catch a killer lurking
around the retirement community—even if it means turning
her world upside down all over again.
