Description
Garden designer Liz Clarke returns to Greenwich, Connecticut, expecting to find the haven of her childhood. Her memories are interrupted when her pregnant goddaughter discovers the body of the garden tour chairwoman and calls Liz. She shifts her focus from dirt to detecting to save Melissa from suspicion. The kitchen garden she designed for the annual tour gives Liz access to the world in which the social-climbing victim Staci Hooper made enemies. Liz digs into motives and alibis. Was Lawrence Hooper planning to replace his current trophy wife? Or did his lover's sister, whom Staci displaced in the garden club, want revenge? Maybe Staci's own lover needed to quiet her in order to safeguard his marriage. Finding Staci's identical twin Kelli rammed by a hit and run driver convinces Liz that the same person murdered both women. Next, the killer attacks Melissa, bringing on the premature birth of her first child, and Liz vows to root out the evil invading her garden. Liz sifts through the clues and uncovers a very nasty snake in the garden indeed - one that will kill again if necessary.
