A water feud. A dead rancher. And a killer who won’t let the truth surface.
Life in Salmon, Idaho, is never dull for flower-shop owner Hatta McFarlane. Especially when a heated argument over irrigation water ends with rancher Russ Talbot dead in a canal.
The police have questions, and Hatta has a talent for finding answers—usually with her mischievous Yorkie, Sprout, underfoot and her opinionated ghost grandmother, Agatha, offering advice nobody asked for.
The suspects are piling up faster than flower orders. There’s Roy Tanner, whose thirsty pastures sparked a public threat, and Neil Mercer, a dealer who lost money in a bitter tractor deal. But the more Hatta digs, the more she discovers that Russ had a knack for making enemies.
When a witness reveals that another vehicle followed Russ toward the canal, the investigation takes a dangerous turn. Hatta must uncover who went after him—and why—before a killer buries the truth for good. $0.99 on Kindle.
