About This Book

'A series I can get behind on so many levels! ... This book is enchanting with a capital EEEEEE! Steph is so relatable and utterly adorable' Reader review, 5 stars

Steph Williams is excited to get her hands stuck into her latest gardening project. This time, she's been commissioned by Lady Clara of Ashford Manor to restore the stately gardens to their former glory.

But the estate is thrown into chaos when a dead body is discovered in one of the rooms. The police rule it as suicide, but Steph's convinced they're barking up the wrong tree. She knows the deceased and it could only be one thing: murder. And Steph is no wallflower - if the police won't listen, she will have to dig out the truth herself.

As Steph tries to get to the root of the matter, with the help of her trusty hound Mouse, she discovers that the manor staff hold secrets of their own, and soon she's not sure who she can trust. But one thing is for sure - she's not going to let the murderer lead her up the garden path...

Gardener turned amateur sleuth Steph and her adorable dog are on the search for a killer in this highly gripping and unputdownable cosy crime novel. Fans of Richard Coles, Fiona Leitch and Sarah Yarwood-Lovett will be hooked from beginning to end.
