Untitled Marnie Riches

Having won the Golden Trowel Award for best community gardening club, Gill and the Bromley Botanists are poised to turn the Chequered Lawns Golf Club into a flower farm.

Confident they can succeed with their new plan, Gill has already handed in her notice at Chislehurst Green Insurance and Mike has left Dobbies. The soil beneath the pristine turf of the eighteen hole golf club looks rich and fertile. Life is looking up. But before they’ve even broken ground with a digger, the Bromley Botanists’ golden trowel starts to lose its shine…

When a dead body turns up during excavation work the golf club becomes a crime scene, and once again The Gardeners Club turn their attention to tracking down the truth in order to save their dream.

As the motley crew come together once again, it’s up to Gill and her friends to dig deep into the past to let their future bloom!
