Making fairy gardens, and teaching crafters how to do the same, keeps Carmelby-the-Sea shop owner Courtney Kelly busy—but sometimes she has to make time for a wee bit of detective work ...
With a theater foundation tea and an art show planned at Violet Vickers' estate, Courtney is hired to create charming fairy gardens for the event. It's not so charming, however, when her best friend Meaghan's ex-boyfriend turns out to be
Violet's latest artistic protégé. Even worse, not long after Meaghan locks horns with him, his body is found in her yard, bludgeoned with an objet d'murder.
There's a gallery of suspects, from an unstable former flame to an arts and crafts teacher with a sketchy past. But when the cops focus on Meaghan's business partner, who's like a protective older brother to her, and discover he also has a
secret financial motive, Courtney decides to draw her own conclusions. Fearing they're missing the forest for the trees, and with some help from Fiona the sleuthing fairy, she hopes to make them see the light ...

      Set in Carmel-by-the-Sea, Calif., Agatha winner Gerber’s well-crafted fourth Fairy Garden mystery (after 2022’s A Hint of Mischief) finds Courtney Kelly in her shop, Open Your Imagination, creating fairy garden centerpieces for a charity tea when her best friend, Meaghan Brownie, bursts in on the verge of tears. Meaghan’s ex-boyfriend, artist Nicolas Buley, is in town and wants her back. Meaghan owns an art gallery, along with her partner, Ziggy Foxx, and still represents Nicolas’s artwork. Nicolas doesn’t take rejection well, and following an ugly altercation, he’s found murdered in Meaghan’s yard. Nicolas has enemies galore, including his own brother, so there are suspects aplenty. But when Ziggy, Meaghan’s protective friend and mentor, is accused of the crime, Courtney takes it upon herself to assist the investigation whether the police want her to or not. It doesn’t hurt that Courtney has the help of her intrepid companion, Fiona, a fairy on probation who’s earning her way back to the fairy realm by helping humans solve problems. Readers will keep turning the pages to see what happens next to the appealing leads. Recipes round out this gentle cozy with a touch of magic. Agent: John Talbot, Talbot Fortune.
