Murder by Arrangement
(2025)(The third book in the Barb Stitch Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Nina A Wells
A dead judge. A twisted funeral arrangement. And a librarian caught in the middle of a blooming mess.
In Broad Hollow, Wyoming, spring brings garden parties, gossip—and murder. When Marlene Tisdale, the town’s most feared and least-liked flower judge, is found dead inside a funeral display, suspicion lands on florist Judy Jenkins—especially after their heated sidewalk spat goes viral.
Barbara Stitch would rather be shelving books and burning dinner, not chasing killers. But she can’t stand by while her friend is framed. With her golden retriever, Suga, sniffing out secrets, Barbara dives into a tangle of cryptic notes, sachets, and secrets buried deeper than the roots of Marlene’s prized roses.
Red herrings are everywhere in this tight-knit town: the café owner with the cursed herbs, the pet shop rival with a score to settle, and someone else who’s been pruning more than just plants.
The closer Barbara gets to the truth, the more danger she’s in.
If she doesn'''t solve this case fast—she’ll be the next one pushing up daisies.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
