He immediately claims that he was the one who killed the woman that was found in the tall grass, clutching a bouquet of snapdragons as the White Mountains loomed all around.
But philosopher-turned-amateur-sleuth-and-barista, Paige Palmer, is skeptical. Years of study taught her to always question a conclusion that seems too forgone to be true... and a decade of reading the author's novels alert her to the fact that something deeper has to be afoot.
Teaming up with her reluctant boss, and her boyfriend-in-waiting, Rohan, Paige is determined to discover what actually happened to the victim, and to find her killer.
With a paperback in one hand and a fresh brew in another, it seems a race against time to unravel an ending most bitter.
