About this listen
A missing gardener. A stolen plant. A secret never meant to bloom.
When botanist Mirabel Vance vanishes during Hazelwood’s Spring Garden Tour, innkeeper Grace Hawthorne is pulled into her most unusual mystery yet.
Beneath Violet Hill lies a decades-old secret—Cold War experiments, encrypted plants, and a vault built to hide what was never meant to be discovered. As Grace, Ava, Megan, and their animal companions unravel the clues, someone else is working to silence them.
In Hazelwood, even the flowers know how to keep secrets.
A Message In Bloom blends cozy mystery charm with light thriller intrigue, creating a page-turner perfect for fans of small-town sleuths, quirky characters, and mysteries with a scientific twist.
