This series touches my soul! Sometimes you find that a book two doesn't live up to book one, but this one surpasses the first installment! I love that we are learning more about the family dynamics and little tidbits about all the characters! The mystery was solidly written and perfectly executed. The tie in that is divulged in this book is incredible! I cannot wait for the next installment!

I enjoyed reading the story, looking forward to the next book this is a page turner, if you like suspense plus some romance you have to read the book, I had no idea you killed the preacher, there are a lot of twists and turns.

Love this series about the magical garden, and this addition disappoint. It was fun reading about her opening her flower shop and dealing with the investigation, Wonderful characters and background with a well written story to tie it all together.

A fun "whodunit" set amongst the Scottish coastline filled with a small village and a magical garden, "Death and Daisies" once again has Fiona Knox in the midst of a murder - this time the local, long-time minister who was not thrilled with Fiona's arrival to town & the magical garden that she inherited. A cast of quirky townspeople fill the story as Fi juggles the grand opening of her new flower shop with life with her younger sister in town and also trying to solve the murder (against the wishes of the local police inspector).

The second in the Magic Garden Mystery series, I didn't feel at a loss not having read the first book - background details were peppered into the story as needed.

Free ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Book is available November 13th.

t’s been awhile since Fiona Knox left her home in Tennessee to take up residence in the home and gardens in Scotland left to her by her godfather. And while she was delighted to learn that the garden had some magical properties, she’s still recovering from the murder investigation that came about after a dead man was found in her garden. Trying to move on, Fi is preparing to open her Climbing Rose Flower Shop. Most of the locals have seemed to accept her, with the exception of the local minister, who makes it clear he thinks she should go back to America. When the minister is found dead in mysterious circumstances, Fi is the number one suspect and she once again finds herself embroiled in a murder inquiry. I love these books, the mysteries and the characters are great, but it’s the magical garden I really love.
