Synopsis
The summer of 1976 was the hottest in living memory. In the Botanical Gardens at Kew, a lost little girl stumbled upon a deserted gallery. Dizzied by the heat, she thought she saw a woman lying dead on the ground. But when she opened her eyes, the woman had gone. Forty years later, Stella Darnell, the detective's daughter, is investigating a chilling new case. What she uncovers will draw her into the obsessive world of botany, and towards an unsolved murder that has lain dormant for decades.

Review
'Entertaining ... The twists, turns and revelations of clues and links are deftly handled into an exciting tale. Her use of a cleaning detective and a side-kick with such percipience is inspired' Crime Review. 'A classic mystery with various red herrings and a surprising but totally fair twist at the end. Readers - pay attention! Highly recommended' Promoting Crime. 'An atmospheric and sinister crime thriller with an agreeably complex tale of murder in an iconic London setting' 4/5, The Curious Ginger Cat. 'A prime example of complex storytelling on a grand scale ... an intricate story that stealthily holds your attention throughout towards a thrilling and gripping finale' Bookshelf Butterfly. 'A haunting novel about loss and reconciliation, driven by a simple but clever plot' The Sunday Times. 'This is a beautifully crafted, thoughtful murder mystery, with a denouement both shocking and satisfying ... Yet another unsettling, accomplished book by a writer at the top of her game' Sarah Higbee.
