Tulips Too Late: A Flower Shop Mystery Novella (Flower Shop Mystery: Seasons Collection)

It's springtime in New Chapel, Indiana, but as the weather heats up, so too does the drama, in this thrilling new Flower Shop mystery novella from New York Times Bestselling Author Kate Collins. 

After arriving late for a tulip delivery, Bloomers Flower Shop owner Abby Knight Salvare stumbles upon a homicide in action. When her long-time friend, Sgt. Sean Reilly accidentally releases information to the press, he is forced to step away from the case, and even his positon as Sergeant. 

Having nowhere else to turn, and armed with a list of evidence that the detectives refuse to investigate, Sgt. Reilly enlists the help of Team Salvare - Abby and Marco - to solve this case and set things right. 

Abby will not only struggle with the case, but also with her own body as she and Marco engage in a rigorous healthy regimen, making sure they are in shape for a family cruise taking place in three short weeks. Abby's emphatic cousin Jillian makes it a point to help Abby shed those extra pounds, promising that no one will ever again call Abby by her former high school nickname. 

In order to solve this mystery, Abby and Marco must defy strict orders from a powerful old foe, a bull-headed, corrupt detective, who promises that one wrong move will have them wrapped up in legal fees, courtroom battles, and possibly even worse. Abby's passion for truth and unquenchable thirst for justice drives her forward even while the odds stack up against her. Finding the killer will not only be Abby's greatest challenge but also her greatest redemption, knowing she may have been able to save someone's life, had she not delivered those tulips...too late.
