Description

A huge funeral for Windermere's popular resident, Barbara Dodge, is taking place and florist Persimmon 'Simmy' Brown and her new assistant, Bonnie Lawson are busy compiling wreaths in preparation.

Reviews

'The depiction of the beautiful Lake District scenery is part of the book's charm as is the portrait of the tight-knit community of Troutbeck ... Recommended particularly for readers who prefer their crime fiction to be of a traditional nature.' - Mystery People
