Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A New York Times Bestselling Author -- As Darling, Alabama, readies itself for the annual Confederate Day celebration, the Darling Dahlias prepare to plant Confederate roses along the fence of the town cemetery. But they also have their hands full with three mysteries -- one of their own suspected of stealing county funds, a secret code embroidered in a family heirloom, and the very strange behavior of one local resident. Darling is anything but a sleepy little town...
"For the Confederate Day celebration, the Darling Dahlias are ready to plant Confederate roses along the fence of the town cemetery. Miss Dorothy Rogers, club member and town librarian, would be quick to point out the plant is in fact a hibiscus. The Confederate rose is not the only thing that is not what it first appears to be in this small Southern town. Earle Scroggins, the county treasurer, has got the sheriff thinking that Scroggins' employee Verna Tidwell (also the Darling Dahlias' trusted treasurer) is behind a missing $15,000. Meanwhile Miss Rogers has discovered her own mystery-what appears to be a secret code embroidered under the cover of a pillow, the only possession she has from her grandmother" -- Cover verso.
