The antique quilt was exquisitely embroidered with flowers and leaves. A labour of
love, Bronwen thought. Until she discovered a darker purpose to the quilt's design.
In A Patchwork of Poison textile artist, Bronwen Jones works on her art quilts for an upcoming exhibition near her south Shropshire home. Sixteen year old Cat asks Bron's help in uncovering the history of her heritage quilt, and the rumoured lost inheritance. But when Cat disappears and a schoolfriend is found murdered, Bron discovers the thread that links past and present, and the deadly secret the quilt conceals. |
'Every quilt tells a story', but textile artist Bronwen Jones soon discovers that not all the stories are happy ones. As the new Quilter in Residence in the small mid-Wales town of Llannon, she seeks to discover the area's quilting heritage, but in the process she finds herself caught up in a modern mystery. Is there a link between the disappearance of a young girl two years ago and the hit-and-run victim found at the roadside? And whose bones have just been unearthed in a landslip on a remote hillside? According to DS Flint, the body has been buried for over seventy years. The victim died a violent death. Someone, Bronwen realises, believes they got away with murder. Until now. |

When Fern escapes from London to start her new business in the South Shropshire hills, she believes she has found
peace and safety at last - until she discovers the body of her first client, wealthy herbalist Joshua Hamble,
dead in his physic garden. So begins a trail of murder and revenge as Fern unearths the Hambles' family secrets.
Overshadowed by murder and suspicion, her relationship with hunky Welsh detective, DI Drummond, seems destined not to
flourish, but even in such stony ground, a fragile affection begins to grow. Can it survive the searing heat of betrayal?
As Drummond warns her, "gardening can be a dangerous business"

The story continues Fern Green's career as a garden designer, and her relationship with hunky Welsh detective, DI Ross Drummond.
When the body of a newborn baby is discovered in the long-neglected garden of Plas Graig, Fern discovers that the secrets of
the past still haunt the living. Now a girl has been found murdered in nearby woods, and the echoes of past wrongs can no longer
be stifled. But Fern soon discovers that there are some in the village who would prefer the past remained buried. As she tries to
find a link with an apparent suicide six years before, her quest to unearth the truth puts her own life in danger. |
