Flowers and Foul Play (A Magic Garden Mystery #1) by Amanda Flower
Fiona Knox lost her fiancé and her flower shop—but when she flies to Scotland to inherit her godfather’s cottage and possibly magical walled garden, she may lose her life as well when she’s swept into a murder investigation.
Florist Fiona Knox’s life isn’t smelling so sweet these days. Her fiancé left her for their cake decorator. Then, her flower shop wilted after a chain florist opened next door. So when her godfather, Ian MacCallister, leaves her a cottage in the Scottish Highlands, Fiona jumps on the next plane to Edinburgh. Ian, after all, is the one who taught her to love flowers. But when Ian’s elderly caretaker Hamish MacGregor shows her to the cottage upon her arrival, she finds the once resplendent grounds of Duncreigan in a dreadful shambles—with a dead body in the garden.
Minutes into her arrival, Fiona is already being questioned by the handsome Chief Inspector Neil Craig and getting her passport seized. But it’s Craig’s fixation on Uncle Ian’s loyal caretaker, Hamish, as a prime suspect, that really makes her worried. As Fiona strolls the town, she quickly realizes there are a whole bouquet of suspects much more likely to have killed Alastair Croft, the dead lawyer who seems to have had more enemies than friends.
Now it’s up to Fiona to clear Hamish’s name before it’s too late in Flowers and Foul Play, national bestselling author Amanda Flower’s enchanting first Magic Garden mystery.

My Review
I enjoy Amanda Flower’s books and this one was no exception, we are heading to Scotland and a magical garden.
Of course, there will be a body, and this leads to a mystery of why he ended up in the dead at the time garden. The reason the garden is dead? Well you will need to read about the magic, and I still have some questions. There is a subtle hint of romance, but will anything come from it?
This one will keep you guessing and wondering why, and all the while the town is striving to keep their beautiful coast line. Is the murder and Fiona’s coming connected? Wait for the bomb shells, they will be dropped and some I never saw coming.
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Crooked Lane Books, and was not required to give a positive review.
