(2025)(The fourth book in the Iris Bennett Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Jade Curry
Poisoned Corsage, Family Drama, and a Pageant Gone Deadly.
Spring in Cedar Grove means pastel bunting, garden gossip, and the Annual Petal Pageant, until the glamorous event takes a shocking turn. A sudden death during the festivities sends the town reeling, and whispers of a poisoned corsage spread like wildfire. All eyes land on a tangled knot of old family drama that refuses to stay buried.
Florist Iris Bennett isn’t looking to play detective, but with her one-eyed cat Winston sniffing out secrets and Detective Mark Cooper quietly relying on her insights, she’s soon caught in a thorny web of deceit woven through festival politics, grudges, and a garden of suspects.
As burned records surface and loyalties are tested, Iris must dig deep before the killer takes root in the shadows again. In Cedar Grove, even flowers can carry fatal secrets, and not everyone will survive the bloom.
