I had never read a book by Joce Lavene and Jim Lavene, but this one was so good that I have ordered several more now! Peggy Lee, the main character, is a noted botanist and a widow of a detective; she teaches classes at Queens in Charlotte, NC, and also owns The Potting Shed, a gardener's paradise where she is trying to build a business so she can eventually stop teaching and pursue her love of plants. The book is filled with suspense and just enough humor and love to add a light touch. It also has plant information at the beginning of each chapter!! I made a great choice when I decided to read this book!!
