The Alice Bloom series wraps its cozy mysteries in a gardening theme, with each title featuring a different flower — Murder in the Marigolds, Ruin in the Roses, Scandal in the Saffron. The protagonist’s green thumb and botanical expertise play into the mystery-solving as she investigates crimes in and around gardens and greenhouses.
With fifteen books published from 2019 onward, Alice Bloom has become one of Fiona Grace’s more substantial series. The floral theme gives each mystery a distinctive visual identity and allows Grace to weave gardening knowledge into the plots as both clues and atmosphere.
