Publisher's Synopsis
The spring bank holiday marks one year since 'Simmy' Brown opened her florist shop in the idyllic Lake District town of Windermere. But the long weekend is far from peaceful. There's word of a series of sinister dognappings occurring in nearby Troutbeck and whilst taking a walk up Wansfell Pike, Simmy and her father stumble on the body of a dog. Unnerved by a suspicious looking man carrying a large bag and hushed conversation overheard outside the pub, Simmy and Russell suspect foul play. When one of the suspects is found on a farmyard with his throat slit, Simmy reluctantly gets caught up in a murder investigation.
