(2027)(The second book in the Bookmobile Mysteries series)
A novel by Rosemary Whittaker
This summer, something deadly is in bloom
Travelling librarian Lucy Leaf is looking forward to a peaceful day at the village flower and produce show admiring prize-winning roses, sampling homemade cakes, and keeping her mischievous dog, Montgomery, out of trouble. But when several of the judges fall deathly ill after tasting the entries, the fun day out takes a shocking turn.
With no way for the poison to have been administered and no obvious suspect, the police are baffled. Somewhere among the preserves, petals, and prize vegetables lies the key to an almost impossible crime. Determined to uncover the truth, Lucy begins asking questions of her own. But the deeper she digs, the more dangerous the mystery becomes, and it’s clear that beneath the village’s friendly rivalries lie secrets worth killing for.
Can Lucy unravel the truth and solve the mystery or has the next victim already been chosen?
Perfect for fans of cosy mysteries, village crime, amateur sleuths, and twisty, character-driven whodunnits.
