Synopsis

BOOK THREE OF THE INTRIGUING “THYME WILL TELL” MYSTERY SERIES Can Regan Culver prune away a thorny tangle of suspicion and danger that’s strangling an heirloom rose society?

After wildlife rehabilitator Damia Day costs senatorial hopeful Bram Falco the election, her animal patients are slaughtered and her prized rose bushes poisoned–presumably in retaliation. Since both Day and Falco are members of the heirloom rose society founded by Regan Culver’s mother, Regan is asked to intervene. But when someone replaces Falco’s lighter fluid with gasoline at a society cookout, the resulting explosion disfigures him for life and a deadly, modern-day War of the Roses ignites.

To quench it, Regan must discover the truth about another fiery accident that dates back to the seventies and has left one charred body unidentified for twenty-five years. But before the mystery is solved, a murderer will strike again. And the blood-stained white rose clasped in the victim’s hand warns Regan that even an interfering innocent can be in danger when she knows too much…
