An English castle, a smart resourceful young sleuth and a deadly drama in full bloom.

The gardens are primped and the cameras are rolling when historic Frobisher Castle hosts a high-profile flower show and becomes the backdrop for an international gardening TV program.

Teaming with camera crews, competing gardeners and enough blossoms to make a bee dizzy, castle employee and amateur sleuth, Kitty McCray, was hoping to just stop and smell the roses. But when a sudden death occurs, suspicion becomes the only thing that takes root.

The victim? A brash and demanding socialite with a knack for making enemies and stealing the spotlight.

As filming grinds to a halt, Kitty teams up with charming castle owner Richard, Inspector Haddock and her beloved cat Mittens, to dig into the thorny world of floral rivalries, jilted lovers, ratings-hungry producers, and a sweet old lady with a penchant for plant sabotage.

As tempers flare and secrets unfurl like creeping vines, can Kitty uncover the killer in time, or will she be the next one pushing up daisies?
