A new friend accused of murder needs Kaylee Bleu to uncover the true killer before their Christmas goes from merry and bright to downright dismal. Intrigued by news of rare mulberry trees growing in Turtle Cove, Washington, newcomer Holly Schultz's greenhouse, florist Kaylee Bleu visits the gardener and finds her fretfully cleaning up after a break-in on her property. When Holly refuses to involve law enforcement in the situation, Kaylee begins to wonder what’s really bothering Holly. Worsening the situation, Holly's reclusive elderly neighbor, Warren Foster, is discovered dead and covered in mulberry juice, which quickly pushes Holly to the top of the sheriff's suspect list. Despite the harsh accusations of a cantankerous islander, Kaylee isn't convinced that Holly is to blame for Warren's suspicious demise. All Kaylee wants for Christmas is to understand her new friend's past and help her build a future in Turtle Cove that's full of good cheer … but in order for that to happen, Kaylee will have to find and face off with a murderous villain. This clever whodunit from Annie’s Victorian Mansion Flower Shop Mysteries series is a must-read for fans of cozy mysteries, gardening, and female friendships.
