🏡 Tea shop owner Violet Brewster adores her picture-perfect English village of Honeycroft, where everyone knows each other and life moves at a gentle pace. But when the village's beloved mayor is found dead in the prize-winning rose garden during the annual Spring Fete, the peaceful facade shatters. The police call it a tragic accident, but Violet notices the carefully planted clues that suggest otherwise—a misplaced gardening glove, a broken teacup, and a cryptic note pinned to the village notice board. As old grudges surface and long-buried secrets bloom like spring flowers, Violet teams up with the village's retired Scotland Yard inspector and her gossipy book club to investigate. From competing jam recipes to disputed property lines, every quaint village tradition hides a potential motive. But as Violet digs deeper into the community's carefully tended soil, she uncovers a root system of resentment that runs generations deep—and a killer who's been waiting decades to settle a score.
