About this listen

Everything’s coming up roses for garda Siobhán and the rest of O’Sullivan family in quaint Kilbane, County Cork, Ireland—until a murder investigation blooms out of a deadly gardening competition.

While Siobhán studies for her Detective Sargeant exams, her brother, Eoin, prepares for the grand opening of his new restaurant, The O’Sullivan Six, and concocts a plan to enter Kilbane’s Top Garden Contest to boost business. But trouble brews when Eoin hires a mercurial landscape designer known for her killer designs. His new partner’s unflattering reputation and questionable practices nearly eclipse her talents—and plunge the prestigious competition into chaos.

A lush and intricate winning garden emerges from the controversy, with a spectacular golden statue in the center of the display. But in a devastating twist, the work of art leads to the shocking discovery of a bold and brutal work of murder.

Everyone in town has an opinion about who committed the crime and planted the evidence, from easily bribed sponsors to green-with-envy gardeners. And with another golden statue found in Eoin’s garden display, rumors about his involvement intensify. As local gossip buzzes and a list of suspects grows, it’s up to quick-witted Siobhán and her husband, Macdara, to suss out the guilty culprit’s identity … before the competition buries another victim.

Another Great Entry in the Series

I love this series. This was a great addition with a cliff hanger that makes me excited for the next addition. The narrator, as always is phenomenal!

Love the O’Sullivan Six

It’s a fun series to listen to - a joy to hear the lilt of an Irish accent amongst the usual gruesome murder that showcases one of the seven deadly sins.

Great cozy mystery

This was a gripping and entertaining romantic suspense story. Well written, the narration was good and the narrator(s) easy to listen to. They brought the story to life for me. I quickly became invested the story and I really liked the characters.

Disappointed

I have loved this series and from the first book couldn’t wait for the next. I’m so torn about leaving a more honest review but maybe it will result in better books in the future if the author reads more reviews that share my view.
The narrator is excellent and should never be changed as she makes any flaws in plot more tolerable.
I enjoyed the last chapter and the short follow up after, but the rest was a slog. In truth, for me, most successive books have declined in terms of plot. I love the family and every part of their stories, but the murders and especially the characters involved in them, not so much.
