Welcome to Litsy!

Introducing Alexander to her family is so much more fraught when Saffron discovers that the dastardly Bill Wyatt has infiltrated her family home as a doctor. It‘s up to her to find what he‘s looking for, before he follows through on his threats.

My favorite! It felt so much tighter, we had an interesting B plot, & I loved the introduction of Saffron‘s family. The romance is also much more solid here, & Elizabeth continues to delight me.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

May #ThematicCozies: Flowers/ Garden. I love how in cozy mysteries small towns have everything. Bookstore, bakery, yoga studio, fitness center, etc.

Enjoyable read. Little unbelievable how police handled murder inquiry. Not bumbling which would have made story silly but bit lackadaisical. But it works because it's a cozy. Will continue to read seasonally. And will pick on for June Prompt: Celebrations.

This is the first cozy I‘ve read that didn‘t involve an active murder investigation. It was enjoyable enough, though. To be fair, the title implies that seeds of murder are planted, and this is the first book in this series. Books 2 and 3 do have murder investigations so I‘ll give the next one a try. This one did have mysteries, and in the process of figuring them out, an old murder is solved. A soft pick!
