Description
Spring arrives in northern Virginia, bringing with it a vibrant display of flowers and a sense of community. For Mary Minor "Harry" Harristeen, this means a busy schedule of gardening and preparing for the Homecoming celebration at St. Luke's Lutheran Church. However, a series of events threatens to disrupt the tranquility of the season. A brewery is robbed, and a murder takes place at a charity auction, with the victim poisoned by a fatal weed. As Harry delves into the mystery, she becomes convinced that the two events are connected. With the help of her feline sidekicks, Mrs. Murphy and Pewter, as well as her loyal companions Tee Tucker the corgi and sweet puppy Pirate, Harry sets out to uncover the truth. But as she digs deeper, she realizes that a killer is lurking in their midst, one with a keen understanding of poisonous plants. Can Harry stop the killer before they strike again? With the help of her animal friends, she must navigate the complex web of relationships and alliances in her community to uncover the truth and bring justice to the victims.
