Orchid of Deceit

A Gardening Cozy Mystery

By: GB Lyons

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

When Gloria Gardner traded her old life for a cozy greenhouse in the charming coastal town of Blossoms Bay, she expected peaceful days surrounded by plants and the salty ocean breeze. What she didn't expect was a demanding customer insisting she procure an endangered orchid—or for that same customer to turn up dead in her own greenhouse just days later. Now Gloria finds herself drawn into a mystery that runs deeper than anyone imagined, with only her sharp eye for detail and her opinionated Pomeranian, Azalea, to guide her.

As whispers swirl through Blossoms Bay and suspicion falls on those closest to the victim, Gloria discovers that the wealthy orchid collector had a talent for making enemies. From bitter rivals to unpaid workers, everyone seems to have a reason to want her gone. But when the evidence points in unexpected directions, Gloria realizes that some secrets have roots that stretch back decades—and someone will do anything to keep them buried.
