MEET ABBY FINCH. SHE'S THE BUSY MUM OF THREE, AN EXPERT GARDENER AND THE STAR OF YOUR NEW FAVOURITE COZY MURDER MYSTERY.

In the peaceful Cotswolds village of Maybridge, you wouldn't expect to find a dead body in the rose garden. And certainly not two.

Abby is horrified to discover the bones of a baby buried under a rose bush. It's in the garden of her soon-to-be ex-husband Howard's family home.

She immediately calls the police. But she can't get hold of Howard. He's off on a jolly with the woman he's got pregnant.

And then, just two days later, Abby finds Howard himself.

Lying dead in the very same rose garden.

Throat slashed with her own garden spade.

Now Abby is the prime suspect . . .

Fans of Faith Martin, Jane Adams, Frances Evesham, M.C. Beaton, Clare Chase or Jeanne M. Dams will love this addictive cozy mystery!

Kept me interested and did not guess who did the deed. I enjoyed the story and the reader.

Good narrator and a likeable friendly vibe around the main character, a little too short.

The narration is in places really shouty which isn’t so good when trying to relax and listen. I got used to it after a while but didn’t enjoy her speaking. The story was excellent tho.

Great story but why shout it at me…

The storyline itself held promise, but there was little meat added to the bones to create mystery and tension, and the characters were very one dimensional and rather unbelievable.
The narration was ok, though my husband asked if it was AI so I suppose that says a lot.

Pretty weak
