An innocent rosebush, uprooted in the middle of the night, reveals a horrific secret. Determined to bring those responsible to justice, Daisy embarks on a dangerous trail that grows darker and darker with each unexpected turn.
Essentially-English, almost-certainly quirky, and definitely a little crazy, come and meet our Norfolk-based R.E.D. (Retired Extremely Daisy) heroine, and find out why she's such a hit with readers of all ages.
*"One of the best cozy mysteries I've ever read!"
"A real breath of fresh literary air!"*
Retirement to a sleepy East-Anglian village doesn't go quite as Daisy hoped, after a seemingly- insignificant event triggers something very significant indeed. A mystery to solve is the last thing she expects to stumble across in a sleepy village a few miles from Kings Lynn in Norfolk.
To her surprise she's adapted to country life quite well, although she rather unkindly refers to the beautiful village of Great Wiltingham as the 'place people go to wilt'.
According to Daisy, nothing is ever quite what it seems. In her case, that's the truest thing ever spoken. She's nothing like a pensioner is supposed to be. It could be something to do with the career she had before retiring or perhaps because she wishes she'd never had to leave it behind at all.
For some strange reason, trouble seems to follow her around. It's been a peaceful twelve months settling into village life, but that's about to come to an abrupt end...
'The Root of all Evil' is the first book in the long-running Daisy series. Check out the entire series on the new rtgreen website. While you're there, have a look at our 1920's historical series too, 'The Sandie Shaw Mysteries'.
Take a break from the world around you, just for a while. Relax with a smile (or a cringe) and a truly original story. Enjoy!
