Things really go to seed in the newest novel in the New York Times
bestselling Book Retreat mysteries...
There is a hidden garden bordering the grounds of Jane Steward's
book-themed resort--a garden filled with beautiful but deadly plants
such as mandrake and nightshade. Tucked away behind ivy-covered walls
and accessible only through a single locked door, as described in the
pages of Frances Hodges Burnett's classic novel, the garden is of
special interest to Jane's current group of guests, The Medieval
Herbalists. But when one of them turns up dead, Jane must discover
whether a member of the group has come to Storyton Hall to celebrate
their passion for plant lore or to implement a particularly cruel means
for murder.
With thousands of books at her disposal, Jane believes she has the
proper materials to solve this deadly problem. If she's wrong, however,
she may lose something far more precious than the contents of Storyton's
secret library...
