The Potting Shed Mysteries by Marty Wingate (#1-5,8)
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 4 MB
Overview: Marty lives with her husband and two cats near Seattle, her local library standing in for a more colorful writing venue—say, Vita Sackville-West’s tower at Sissinghurst. She is a member of Sisters in Crime, Mystery Writers of America, and the Crime Writers Association (Britain) as well as the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds and the Royal Horticultural Society. She has her own modest vintage collection of books from the Golden Age writers.
Marty takes research seriously—she is a former how-to garden writer of three books and a countless number (at least, she stopped counting ages ago) of magazine and newspaper articles on everything from apple maggot to the prettiest daffodils and the best-smelling roses. Research took on an entirely new light when she began writing mysteries, and now she and her husband travel regularly to England and Scotland, where she plunges deeply into study concerning the next adventure for Hayley, Julia, or Pru—sparing not a few minutes a day to head to the pub.
Genre: Fiction > Mystery/Thriller Cozy
The Garden Plot (#1)
Meet Prunella ‘Pru’ Parke, an American gardener who digs up murder and mystery wherever she goes.
Dallas girl Pru’s always dreamed of living in England — a country of lush green gardens, endless drizzle and ruggedly handsome groundskeepers.
She moves to London on a whim, to find that no one in the city wants to hire her. Except for wealthy Vernona Wilson, who’s quite desperate to be rid of her unsightly old potting shed.
Pru dusts off her spade and gets to work, under the watchful eye of a snooping neighbor. She expects to dig up dirt. But nothing like this.
An ancient Roman mosaic and a bludgeoned body. Whose secrets has she stumbled on, buried in the soil?
Dishy Detective Christopher Pearse is on the case. But Pru can’t wait for him to piece it all together.
Not when there’s a brutal killer out there who thinks she’s already dug much too deep
The Red Book of Primrose House (#2)
Meet Prunella ‘Pru’ Parke, an American gardener who digs up murder and mystery wherever she goes.
Pru lands her dream job: head gardener at rambling old Primrose House in Sussex. Only to find that it’s no bed of roses.
Pru’s tasked with restoring the wild estate back to its original glory. But the motley team of helpers may need taming first. And someone seems determined to be a thorn in her side.
But small acts of vandalism around the garden soon turn to murder.
Local widower and gardening enthusiast Ned Bobbins was supposed to be pruning the yew trees. Instead he’s the one who got the chop.
Pru checks her tool shed — and discovers her trusty hatchet is missing. When it surfaces again, wrapped in a red jacket, the police immediately point the finger at another one of Pru’s band of misfits.
But Pru’s not convinced. She knows her team is a bit unruly, but surely none of them are capable of murder.
Can she catch the killer before anyone else comes under the ax?
Between a Rock and a Hard Place (#3)
Meet Prunella ‘Pru’ Parke, an American gardener who digs up murder and mystery wherever she goes.
Is Pru finally about to get her happy ever after?
Her handsome detective boyfriend just got down on one knee. And now she’s headed to Edinburgh to start work on a project at the Royal Botanic Gardens. It’ll only be for a few months. Then Pru will be back in the arms of her beau. Or so she thinks . . .
But then one of Pru’s new colleagues is found dead. Poor old Iain’s been conked on the head with a rock and dumped in the Water of Leith. Mrs Murchie next door is the one to find him. Out looking for her pampered Siamese cat, Prumper, she gets the fright of her life at the river’s edge.
Any one of the Garden staff could be guilty. But the police have just one suspect in their sights — Pru herself!
Pru thought wedding planning was torture — wrangling with a diva organist and formidable Madame Fiona, the last word in bridal couture — but now the clock is ticking to catch the real killer and clear her name.
Unless this bride wants to walk down the aisle in handcuffs . . .
The Skeleton Garden (#4)
Meet Prunella ‘Pru’ Parke, an American gardener who digs up murder and mystery wherever she goes.
Pru thinks she’s found her dream job, but majestic Greenoak Manor has more than a few skeletons in its many closets — and in its garden.
Pru leaps at the chance to renovate the house’s extensive grounds. Especially given her history with Greenoak’s head gardener. Who happens to be her long-lost brother Simon.
She and Simon squabble about everything from boxwood to bay hedges. But their arguments stop when a skeleton is unearthed in the garden, tangled in the roots of a half-dead tree alongside a WWII fighter plane.
Long-buried secrets are threatening the peace of the village . . .
The older locals remember the plane crashing, but no one knows the identity of the bones.
Then a fresh dead body turns up in the grounds.
And Simon’s immediately the prime suspect.
Pru knows her brother’s not a murderer and she’s not about to let him take the fall for someone else’s crimes.
Could a 70-year-old secret really be worth killing for? It’s up to Pru to find out.
The Bluebonnet Betrayal (#5)
Meet Prunella ‘Pru’ Parke, an American gardener who digs up murder and mystery wherever she goes.
Beautiful blooms, a fabulous guestlist — and one dead body! Pru’s dream of working the Chelsea Flower Show just turned into a nightmare . . .
It starts with a favor to an old acquaintance from across the pond. Green-fingered Texan Twyla Woodford has the perfect design for the show. Featuring a sea of delicate Texas bluebonnets.
She begs fellow Texan Pru to help her get everything ready in time. Pru jumps at the chance. The next morning Twyla turns up dead. After a blazing row with one of her gardeners.
Pru’s the one to find her body. Half buried under a wall that should have been part of their display.
Pru’s a force of nature when it comes to her projects. And she won’t give up — on either the show or the hunt for Twyla’s murderer.
If Pru has anything to say about it, this killer is going to learn the hard way not to mess with Texas.
Bittersweet Herbs (#8)
Meet Prunella ‘Pru’ Parke, an American gardener who digs up murder and mystery wherever she goes.
Rosemary, lavender — and a dash of revenge! The perfect murder is brewing in Pru’s sleepy little village.
Herbalist Acantha Morris has big plans for the local hospital. Its grounds will make the most peaceful, healing herb garden. Pru jumps at the chance to lend a hand. But things soon take a sinister turn . . .
Flamboyant entrepreneur Claudia Temple is found dead. Dangling from the end of her own beautiful red scarf.
She’d only just promised Acantha a princely sum to make her dream come true. Now everyone is saying she took her own life. But Pru’s not so sure.
Something about this death leaves a bad taste in her mouth.
When Claudia’s estranged son comes calling, Pru can’t help but be pulled into the mystery. But she’s up against a devious adversary.
What if the killer’s leading her up the garden path and into danger?
