REVIEW
Review - THE HERB GARDENER, Maris Morton
Reviewed By
Monday, June 22, 2015
Another romantic suspense novel, THE HERB GARDENER combines a rural setting, a new love, and a dead young worker.
City girl Joanna moves, with young daughter Mia, to a farm to be with her new boyfriend Chris on his farm. Learning to deal with the remote location is complicated considerably by the suspicious death very near to the station. Alongside the investigation elements of this book, there's little gems of life on farm as well, including the complications of changing crop / farmy style in a time of changing climate and markets.
Whilst obviously it's another example of crimance, and therefore not this reader's preferred tipple, another local book which would be worth a read if you're a fan of this sub-genre.
