Abby
Knight, florist extraordinaire, is busy getting ready for
her own wedding, when there is yet another murder in the small
town of New Chapel, Indiana. The larger problem (although
obviously not for the deceased), is Abby’s mother found
the body, and is more than “a person of interest.”
She’s an actual suspect.
Marco,
Abby’s soon to be husband, is a PI, and Abby helps out
as his assistant. The pair immediately launch their own investigation
to dig the killer out by the roots as well as clear Abby’s
mother’s name. After all, they’re getting married
in two short weeks and the mother of the bride can’t
be in lockup!
Just
who did kill Bev Powers, director of the local pet shelter,
and why? Does it have to do with the fact the shelter might
be forced to change its no-kill policy? Is someone setting
up Maureen Knight for a reason? Thank goodness Abby has friends
and employees, Lottie and Grace, to keep her flower shop running
while she investigates. On top of all this, Abby has to deal
with her cousin Jillian’s pregnancy rehearsal. Mind
you, Jillian is already pregnant, but has taken to wearing
a fake baby bump to prepare for the real thing…and with
hormones on overdrive she’s more demanding than ever.
I’ve
read every book in this series, and been fortunate enough
to review several. Abby is so real and down to earth, and
the supporting characters work perfectly throughout the series.
Kate Collins writes meticulously plotted mysteries, and combines
enough romance and humor for the perfect amateur sleuth book.
You can’t go wrong with “Seed No Evil.”
Enjoy!!
