Murder in Bloom

The Gardener Mysteries, Book 3

De: Rosie Sandler

Narrado por: Shazia Nicholls

Murder is in full bloom, but can Steph and her sidekick Mouse weed out the killer?

It's an invitation Steph Williams can't refuse when she's handpicked to compete in a flower show at the prestigious National Trust property of Coleton Fishacre. With the country's top garden designers as rivals and a stunning historic estate for inspiration, it feels like a dream come true.

But things quickly turn thorny when the youngest competitor falls mysteriously ill and Steph suspects foul play. Her fears are confirmed when a scream echoes through the gardens, leading her to the shocking sight of a dead body at the foot of a cliff.

With her trusty dog Mouse by her side, Steph's determined not to let the culprit slip through the cracks. Uncovering the truth in a garden full of suspects is no easy task, but Steph must see the wood for the trees before the murderer prunes out the competition - for good!

For fans of Richard Coles, Sarah Yarwood-Lovett, and Fiona Leitch, a delightfully witty and gripping cosy crime novel where the stakes are high, the gardens are lush, and murder is always in season.©2024 Rosie Sandler (P)2024 Bonnier Books UK

The Series Keeps Getting Better

First, Shazia Nicholls has narrated all of the books in the series and she is wonderful. I love listening to her soothing voice. Second, the book isn't woke and it isn't political. It is a wonderful cozy mystery.

Wonderful cozy mystery series

I’m such a fan of these books! I love plants and gardening, and am so glad to have cozy mystery series set in and around gardens. The characters and places are well written and interesting—I can’t wait to see where Steph and Mouse end up next:)

dogs and gardens

Great narrator and lovely characters make this series special. i love the gardening lore.

Tooo woke for my liking.

I listen to these cozy mysteries as a form
Of escapism,,, and a break from political agendas. I do not want a woke agenda to be what I hear! The non-binary, lesbian, focus on the female gender was so strong. I found myself hoping the heroine did get “done in”. And did not connect with any of characters except the dog
