  Prettiest garden contest. How delightful…or deadly!  
  I thought judging the Willow Waters garden contest would be fun. A nice way to get to know a few more of my neighbors in this beautiful Cotswold village. I’d get to see how the best gardens grew, maybe even nab a few tips for my own garden. I did not expect the competition to be to the death. Literally.  
  I’m Peony Bellefleur, and I own Bewitching Blooms. I chose to be a florist for all the positive reasons you can imagine: people love flowers. They speak a language we all understand. Fresh blooms perk up an invalid, add celebration to a wedding, and welcome new babies (especially when I’ve added a bit of witch’s magic to my bouquets).  
  I agreed to judge the garden competition for the same reasons. Joy and happiness. Well, that was a mistake. 
  Between missing persons, interfering gnomes, and a full moon celebration that goes wrong, it’s been a busy time. Come join me and my unusual friends in my latest adventure.  
  Luck of the Iris is book four in the Village Flower Shop Cozy Mystery series. Each book can be listened to as a standalone, though it’s better to listen to them in order. There’s no violence, gore, or sex in these novels, just good clean murderous fun with some magically quirky characters

  Marcus Sinclair is a history teacher whose life is stuck in neutral when he inherits a papyrus scroll from his antiquarian uncle. The mysterious scroll might contain a lost masterpiece from ancient Rome or perhaps an ancient recipe for personal tranquility, but it’s unreadable unless Marcus can figure out a way to unroll the scroll without destroying it. His quest takes him to Naples, where he befriends a Google software engineer days before the man is found dead. Marcus is interviewed by an investigative journalist, Kristi Grainger, and they find themselves on parallel paths leading to a Neapolitan trafficker in antiquities, a tech mogul obsessed with the distant past, and a clutch of academics searching for the lost library of Herculaneum. In a seaside city that is by turns lush and lethal, Marcus must confront the unraveling of more than a scroll.
  		 
  This novel is inspired by a real place — the Villa dei Papri, the only library from antiquity to have survived — and coincides with the Vesuvius Challenge, a real-life international competition to decipher Herculaneum scrolls.
