Marnie Bellrose has inherited a house, a garage full of possibilities - and a neighbourhood with far too many rules.

Welcome to Whispering Willows Estates, where lawns are measured, bins are monitored and the homeowners' association has an approved shade for practically everything.

Unfortunately, sunflower yellow is not one of them.

Within forty-eight hours of moving into her late great-aunt Della's house, chaotic ceramic artist Marnie is already at war with Brenda Halbrook, the terrifying president of the HOA. Their very public argument ends with Marnie declaring that someone should poison her.

She probably should have chosen her words more carefully.

At the annual spring bake sale, Brenda collapses. Poisoned.

Beside her plate is one of Marnie's handmade yellow ceramic flowers.

Now Marnie has a motive, a public threat and a particularly incriminating piece of pottery pointing straight at her.

Determined to clear her name, she reluctantly joins forces with Nico Ferrell, the infuriatingly organised - and increasingly difficult to ignore - landscaper who seems to understand hedges, drainage and murder investigations with equal seriousness.

But Brenda had made enemies everywhere: a neighbour forced to demolish an expensive gazebo, a gossip Brenda had been blackmailing, homeowners pressured into selling, and board members hiding questionable property deals.

The deeper Marnie digs, the clearer it becomes that Brenda discovered something dangerous before she died.

Someone is watching Whispering Willows very closely. Someone is prepared to manufacture evidence. And someone is determined to make sure Marnie takes the blame.

In Whispering Willows, everybody knows everybody's business.
