Murder with a Green Thumb
I accuse Major Mallory, in the arboretum, with the hoe! No, no, no! It was Mrs. Phillips in the rose garden with a deadly dose of herbicide!
No matter "who done it", there's little question that the gardening mystery has become so popular. Nearly everyone has spent some time tilling the soil, planting their perennials and cursing the weeds that attempt to take over their garden plots. Throw in the menacing plots of your fellow human beings, and the Garden becomes a prime location for deadly deeds. Whether you're interested in historical gardening mysteries, like those solved by herbalist and medieval monk Brother Cadfael, or contemporaries, such as the stories featuring herb shop owner China Bayles or landscape designer Celia Grant, you should find something to fertilize your fancy. So, plant yourself on a garden bench, and kick back with some Gardening Mysteries! Oh, and watch out for that stranger with the weed whacker!
