About this listen

Step beneath the Spanish moss and enter the humid, secret-laden world of Hawthorn House, rebranded as Beaufort Botanical Retreat. Saffron returns after twelve years, drawn back by the impending death of her godmother, the formidable matriarch Delaphina Duval. But the house, with its aged stucco and grand columns, is not merely a place of fading life; it echoes with the "sting of her mother's last harrowing screams" and is thick with unspoken truths.

Saffron finds Delaphina frail but still commanding, surrounded by those vying for position or protecting their own interests. There's Jolie Marsh, the seemingly innocent greenhouse "princess" who has charmed her way into Delaphina's life and potentially, her will. There's Thatcher, caught between loyalty and attraction. And there's Lucien, the quiet observer, watching the mysterious deaths of the bees.

But beneath the polite garden teas and glossy brochures, something darker is stirring. A faint, damning almond scent lingers, echoing Saffron's painful past. As bees die and threats arrive, Saffron suspects the poison isn't confined to the dying apiary; it might be aimed at Delaphina herself.

The arrival of Carl, Jolie's half-brother with a criminal past and a claim tied to Delaphina's deceased husband, adds another dangerous layer. He's after a hidden letter, proof of a secret that could unravel the estate and expose the house's ugly history. As secrets burn, and a killer circles back, Saffron must confront her own ghosts and unravel the truth behind the poison, the inheritance, and her mother's death.

In a house where loyalty is as fragile as sugar glass and ambition masks sinister intentions, can Saffron protect her godmother and uncover the killer before the past swallows them all? Step into a world of Southern gothic suspense, where the air is thick with secrets and every beautiful bloom hides a potential poison.

Find out who is hunting the matriarch and why before it's too late.
