Shroud of Roses: A Cornwall and Redfern Mystery

… I chuckled a great deal over the antics of Bliss Moonbeam Cornwall, whose steely resolve, madcap pluck, and hardworking determination serve her well as she uncovers the pot-fuelled secrets of her entire town. National Post, for Corpse Flower

An outstanding mystery tale with a funny, feisty heroine who will have you laughing out loud. Waterloo Region Record, for Corpse Flower

Bliss Cornwall has a green thumb for trouble. Her fast-paced story is potted with everything from phallic plants, spotted turtles, a slimy Weasel, home baked brownies (made with an extra-special horticultural ingredient), and a couple of corpses tossed into the mix. Straddling her Savage, she drives Chief Redfern to distraction … and attraction — and I think he’s probably looking forward to their next adventure almost as much as I am. J.E. Forman

Apart from the suspenseful plot, the book is fuelled by Bliss’s character, which provides shots of humor as her determination, cunning, and manipulative ways get her into, and out of, trouble, and by the lively and sexy chemistry between her and Neil.  Publishers Weekly

This is a series made for entertainment...The writing is sharp: the dialogue sets the pace which means trying to stay a page or so ahead of Ms. Cornwall. Canadian Mystery Review blog
