About this book
A murdered gardener’s last witness is a graft already sealing over, and a retired costume cutter has days to decipher it.
Rare fruit survives on borrowed branches in a community for retirees, until a gardener is murdered among the shared trees. A former costume cutter traces tool marks, plant disease and connections crossing property lines before weather or human hands alter the evidence. With a merchant pressing to turn the communal orchard into a private brand, solving the crime may carry a bittersweet cost for the residents and the trees they rely on.
