3.0

Another tricky mystery from Catherine Aird involving a missing person who isn't much missed, and two greenhouses full of orchids with the doors left open to a killing frost ... accident or sabotage? The clues are there, but the resolution comes suddenly, with many clues pointing to other suspects - all wrapped up tidy for the end.

I really dig the number of gardening puns in this. This is a great quick read where Inspector Sloan tries to puzzle out the connection between a missing person and some destroyed orchids. He is deep in the weeds in this one, trying to hack his way out with lots of investigation ground work and helped by the trusty Constable Crosby.
