My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Taking a break from all the chaos around murders Doreen and Mack plan a trip to a local orchid show. Many of the displays are in the community centre but more prized specimens require an in-person visit to the gardeners' homes which is a very rare opportunity. The trip is not quite a date that allows Doreen and Mack to spend time together outside of their usual interactions but also helps her to get to know more of the locals. But when of the locals ends up dead after their visit the dark underbelly of orchid growing is exposed together with an old murder. Doreen and Mack just can't get a break from crime but can they catch the killer?
I enjoyed this story which had Doreen and Mack getting to know each other a little better as well as a chance for Doreen to get involved in yet another murder - current and historic. I loved the way Doreen thinks and the way that she is able to deduce certain information but the way someone answers a question. I enjoyed the chance to solve the mysteries at the centre of the story as well as the improvement in the relationship between Doreen and Mack. (I can't wait for her divorce to come through so she gives in to the inevitable and her relationship with Mack can also move on to the next level. Easy to read and understand so that you could try and solve the cases with them.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
