When Holly's trusted gardener, Juan Alvarez, is arrested for murder, the look-alike sisters become reluctant sleuths. Holly fears police detective, Nick Manelli, assumes Juan is guilty and won't conduct a proper investigation, while Ivy feels the \"hunky\" Manelli is not only a good cop, but also a possible romantic match for her sister. Can the clues the sisters unearth from neighborhood gossip about the victim's family, a politically connected neighbor and a powerful real estate developer help save an innocent man, or will the two middle-aged gardeners dig up more than they bargain for? This is the first book in the Holly and Ivy Mystery Series.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sally Handley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1521216584\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781521216583\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/13\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.67d","brand":"Sally Handley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43940123705599,"sku":"9781521216583","price":11.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_0c54064f-b2d5-4ace-b341-8f19ec58cc92.jpg?v=1681445417","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/second-bloom-sally-handley-9781521216583","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
