The Greenhouse Trap
(2025)(The fourth book in the Claire Bloomfield Mystery series)
A Story by Maisy Marple and Poppy Pemberton
Where deadly secrets bloom beneath the surface...
The picturesque town of Thistlecroft, North Carolina, hides a toxic secret—and someone is willing to kill to keep it buried.
When florist Clara Bloomfield discovers handyman Mason Dillard crushed beneath a collapsed shelf in the college greenhouse, her instincts tell her this was no accident. Mason had been acting strangely, asking about soil conditions and hinting at a dangerous discovery before his untimely death.
As Clara digs deeper, she uncovers a disturbing pattern: Mason was investigating contaminated soil throughout town, with all evidence pointing toward Silas Granger's Garden Essentials shop and its too-good-to-be-true plant products. But pursuing the truth puts Clara squarely in the killer's sights.
With her flower shop threatened, suspicious chemicals appearing in her own garden shed, and a mysterious figure watching her every move, Clara must navigate a tangled web of environmental crimes, corrupt officials, and buried evidence before she becomes the next victim of Thistlecroft's deadly secret.
Can Clara's keen eye for detail and blossoming detective skills unearth the truth, or will she be permanently pruned from the investigation?
