Welcome to THE FLOWER SHOP MYSTERIES, a fun, fast-paced, suspenseful series starring sleuth Abby Knight, a fearless, height-challenged, hot-tempered, law school reject who scrapes up enough money for the down payment on a little flower shop named Bloomers where she sells flowers, solves problems, and tackles even the craftiest killer. Drop by Abby's flower shop on the town square of quaint New Chapel, Indiana. Meet her assistants Grace and Lottie, her sexy neighbor Marco Salvare, a former ex-cop who owns the bar and grill two door up the block, her mother, a kindergarten teacher/clay sculptress, whose works of art cause quite a stir around the square, and many more. Come join the floral fun at Bloomers. You'll have a blast.
Kate Collins is the author of the popular Flower Shop Mystery series. For her plots, Kate draws upon her own love of flowers, a multitude of crazy cats who've allowed her to care for them, an even crazier family, a lawyer husband, and an intimate knowledge of life in a Midwestern college town. She states firmly for the benefit of all who live near her that none of the zany characters that populate the fictional town of New Chapel are based on people she knows. Honest.
