A cozy English village, a clueless city girl, and a cat who thinks he knows it all… She can't grow roses—but murder is blooming nicely! City girl Poppy never expected to inherit a romantic cottage garden nursery—complete with a bossy ginger cat, nosy village neighbours, and a mad inventor next door. Given her habit of accidentally killing every plant she touches, reviving the family business is tough enough... without stumbling over a dead body among the roses!Now Poppy must solve the mystery or risk losing her new home and the chance for a fresh start. But who would want to harm a gardener in a sleepy English village? Could her eccentric neighbour have something to do with the killing? And why is her long-lost cousin so desperate for her to sell the cottage?Armed only with enthusiasm, terrible gardening skills, and the help of a very opinionated ginger tom, Poppy sets out to dig for clues. The only problem is: she could be digging her own grave too.
