I got a free copy of this book through Net Galley in exchange for a free review.
I really enjoyed this one! Pru and Christopher are a lovely married couple. They love each other, but it doesn't have to be over emphasized. I love cozy mysteries, but don't really like too much romance. This book had the right mix.
There were several characters that I didn't like at first. I warmed up to them and found this to be a strength in the book. The town is full of quirky people that really made me fall in love with it. A pet fox, a life coach that makes weird jelly, a B&B with odd wiring and an owner that can't cook are just a few.
I am not a gardener at all, but the plants and garden discussions did not distract from the story as a whole. I got a good idea of what the gardens looked like and the particularly lovely spots. However for those who enjoy gardening, I'm sure you will get a more vivid picture.
I figured out who the murder was a little over halfway through. It was not obvious at first, but there were enough clues to figure it out before Pru. Again a good mix.
There is enough mystery and enough romance and enough quirks and enough clues to make for a really enjoyable book.
