China goes to Kentucky with a friend to help with a workshop about herbs being held at Mount Zion, a former Shaker village. An old journal shows plenty of unhappiness in the Shaker village, including stealing and murder. In the current time, one of the trustees confides in China and her friend, Martha who is also a trustee of the Shaker village now a historic site, that money is missing out of the accounts. This woman is then found dead - drowned in Mount Zion pool. China finds answers to what happened in the past and what is happening in the current time. One of the books for the 2016 Reading Challenge had to be a book set in your home state; in this case, it's Texas. Synopsis: China Bayles was once a high-powered lawyer with more work than fulfillment in her life. She loves gardening and herbs, so retired to a small town in the Texas hill country to open an herb store. However, this idyllic life came with a new husband, his son, crazy friends, and not a small number of murders. In this book China accompanies her friend Martha to a Shaker village in Kentucky. They are supposed to be teaching workshops in the use of herbs, but a series of 'accidents' makes Martha think that there is something sinister happening. Review: For the most part I like Wittig's writing. This book is a departure from her usual 'cozy mystery' because excerpts from actual Shaker journals are used to tell the story. Fairly early on it was apparent what was happening and why, as well as the identity of the perpetrator. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
