'Absolutely cosy and gripping! Don't know nothing about gardens but was pleased to be surprised! Well done can't wait to read the next one!
Steph Williams has arrived at the wealthy, gated community of Beaulieu Heights ready to start her new position as head gardener. Surrounded by mansions and acres of land, it's worlds apart from the life she and her enthusiastic dog Mouse know, but she's determined to give it her best shot.
If Steph happens to overhear private conversations while trimming the bushes, or is refused access to a locked shed, she knows not to question it - after all, gardeners should be seen and not heard.
Until notes start turning up, threatening to reveal the deepest secrets of the residents. Suddenly Steph finds herself the prime suspect and must leave the shelter of the gardens behind, to clear her name and save her job.
The seeds of suspicion have been planted, but this case is turning out to be no bed of roses. And, when the investigation puts her own life at risk, Steph is up against the clock to weed out the real culprit before it's too late...
Perfect for fans of Richard Coles, Fiona Leitch and Sarah Yarwood-Lovett, introducing a brand-new cosy crime series set in the gardening world featuring an unlikely amateur sleuth and her loveable dog.

Rosie Sandler lives in Essex, UK, where she writes novels, poetry and short stories, and is an editor and creative writing tutor. She loves dressmaking and wearing colourful outfits, which often leads to joyful encounters with strangers. Although she enjoys visiting beautifully tended gardens, Rosie's own garden is a bit on the wild side (her excuse is that this encourages hedgehogs and other wildlife). She dreams that she and her husband will one day live beside a lake. Or at least a big puddle. Rosie is co-author of the Agatha Oddly trilogy of children's detective novels.
