Meet Quinella ‘Quincy’ McKay: flower enthusiast, hot fudge sundae lover, hopeless romantic — and now amateur sleuth!

City girl Quincy is ready to turn over a new leaf. Finally free of her good-for-nothing ex, she can focus on growing her aunt’s struggling floral boutique in the picturesque town of Hillside, Utah.

But her hopes wither and die when the body of a rival florist is discovered in a casket — with Quincy’s signature floral arrangement.

The police suspect foul play . . . and Quincy is their prime suspect.

As one of the last people to see the florist alive, Quincy must prove her innocence. But the deeper she digs, the darker the secrets she unearths.

Can Quincy weed out the killer before she is planted in jail?

Meet the Amateur Sleuth
Quincy McKay runs Rosie’s Posies, a quirky little flower shop in the picturesque town of Hillside. She takes pride in her work creating fabulous bouquets for her neighbors. Following a disastrous marriage, she’s wary when it comes to men, but she can’t help being drawn to handsome Detective Alex Cooper. Not that she needs a man . . . she has a knack for DIY and is more than capable of looking after herself. Her witty humor acts as a coping mechanism when things get tough, but there’s nothing a hot fudge sundae can’t fix.

The Setting
Hillside is a charming small town in northern Utah surrounded by mountains and rolling hills. It’s a close-knit community where everyone knows everyone else’s business and gossip runs rife.
