Parish Minister Quaid MacCullen has gotten up close and personal to warn Fiona she doesn't belong in Duncreigan, Scotland tending a garden or opening a flower shop.
The sisters face a terrible lightning storm that rocks their little cottage mightily but when the storm passes everything seems okay until they learn a dead body has been found on the beach. Kipling, the volunteer police chief believes the body is none other but the parish minister who was threatening Fiona. So again she is up to her ears in another police investigation with handsome Chief Inspector Neil Craig, But Isla is acting strange. Could she be involved in the minister's death or know someone who is?

I loved the first book in this series and don't know why it took me so long to get to this one.
I really enjoy the Scottish setting and the magical garden. This time the garden took a little bit of a backseat as Fiona worked hard to open her new flower shop. There were a couple interesting garden scenes though, I just wish there were more as Fiona continues to learn her caretaker status and all the magical mysteries the garden holds.
The character development continues with the inclusion of Fiona's sister Isla. Typical sibling rivalry erupts as the sisters find their way as Isla plans to stay in Scotland. With the opening of her shop, the sisters meet many more residents Aberdeenshire and previous relationships continue to grow. With this character increase the suspect options expand as well. The author takes her time introducing each character too, so they are all very easy to keep straight.
The mystery was very well-plotted with twists, turns, secrets, and misdirection. While the main mystery is wrapped up well there are several strings that carry over into the next book. One that could really turn Fiona's life upside down.
Death and Daisies is a fine addition to this series. I was entertained the entire way. Daisies are my favorite flower and I love seeing fields of them. This story gave me a wonderful virtual view.
I am super excited to read Mums and Mayhem. It will be released on July 7, 2020.
