"Rich in psychological insight" this British cozy featuring a florist turned amateur sleuth is filled with "interesting and unique characters" (Deadly Pleasures).

As the murky lives of her neighbors tangle and swirl around her, Simmy must uncover the motive behind the murder before the killer strikes again ...
