About this listen

When murder rocks her peaceful retirement, one reluctant sleuth must clear her name or be next on the menu…

When Georgina Drake trades London for the tranquil Norfolk countryside, she has simple plans: master pilates, rent out her converted barn to holidaymakers, and slowly heal from a terrible loss. But when she discovers the body of her latest guest—arrogant Cambridge professor Roland Garnett—everything changes.

With the police eyeing Georgina as a suspect and the poisoned curry that killed Garnett somehow linked to her friend’s farm shop, she has no choice but to investigate for herself. Alongside her unlikely team—aristocratic garden enthusiast Sybbie, and no-nonsense friends Francesca and Jodie—can Georgina untangle a web of deadly secrets and poisonous plants, and solve the mystery before her sleuthing puts her next in the killer’s sights…?

The perfect treat for fans of Faith Martin, Midsomer Murders, and anyone who believes the most dangerous sleuths come armed with nothing but sharp wits and a good pair of gardening shears.
