The Gardener's Plot introduces us to Maggie Walker, a fresh, fun, character who is a gardening enthusiast. Maggie has bought her grandmother's home, and she and a local resident, Violet, are starting a community garden.
Naturally, not everyone is open to this idea, and when a body is found in a community plot, and Violet goes missing, Maggie becomes the prime suspect. With the help of her friend Sally, they follow Violet's footsteps, leading them both directly to the killer.

Thank you so much to NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book!
This is your classic "whodunit" story. Takes place in an innocent small town where Maggie and Violet decided to start a community garden - Maggie just moved back to town and finds herself in the middle of a murder investigation and Violet is missing. This story kept me interested and guessing on who could be the culprit. I do wish we would have been given more information on her late husband - early on in the story she talks about a divorce and being a widow and a small mention of cheating but otherwise there is nothing else. I thought that detail was going to be more pertinent to the story.
When I first started reading, I was thinking it might be an unreliable narrator situation. Maggie turned out to be trustworthy - but who was the murderer? :)
