When a weathered diary is left overnight in the Garden of Goodwill, Hazel Whitby knows it isn't an accident. Inside its pages are the words of a teenage girl written during one unforgettable summer in 1985-pressed flowers, stolen moments, and a love that vanished without explanation.
As Hazel begins to follow the diary's trail, she uncovers a quiet injustice buried beneath decades of polite silence. A foster girl who disappeared. A boy sent away. And a powerful family who decided a young love was inappropriate.
With the help of Willowbrook's careful witnesses and her own steady heart, Hazel must piece together what really happened-and decide whether the truth should finally be spoken.
Because even if people are forgotten, their stories don't have to be.
The Diary Left at the Garden of Goodwill is a warm, emotionally resonant cozy mystery about memory, belonging, and the courage it takes to let the past be seen.
This is Book Three in the Lost Letters of Lavender Lane Mystery series and can be read as a standalone
