Book SynopsisTrade Review“A full-on delight: funny, gripping, warm-hearted, and beautifully written—it made me cheer. Read it!” — Madeline Miller, award-winning author of Circe "There's magic in this novel's quirky, sweet world. I want to live in its gardens and cheer Lucy on while she finds her heart’s loves!" — Kristin Cashore, New York Times bestselling author of Graceling and Jane, Unlimited "Margo Rabb takes the elements of storybook and fable and twines them through a crackling murder mystery. Tender and fierce, witty and wise, this is a tale of the route we take when we grow up and into the love we deserve." — Judy Blundell, National Book Award-winning author of What I Saw and How I Lied “A delightfully offbeat mystery that is also about the mystery of becoming yourself.” — Rebecca Stead, New York Times bestselling author “Lucy’s adventure is lush with opulent gardens, big-city charm, and charismatic characters. A beguiling, cozy mystery worth sinking into.” — Kirkus Reviews “[An] engaging narrative about accepting oneself and defending one’s choices.” — Publishers Weekly “Colorful characters, humorous situations, twists, red herrings, poison, family secrets—it’s all there, but this mystery will particularly speak to your old souls and plant lovers.” — Booklist “A good fit for teens who feel misunderstood and yearn to be heard.” — School Library Journal
