Wedded Spirits

Bridal Bouquet Becomes Murder Weapon in Wedded Spirits, a Cozy Historical Mystery by Alice Duncan -1925, Pasadena, California- Daisy is the Matron of Honor for the wedding of Mr. Robert Browning and Miss Regina Petri, Daisy's favorite librarian when she discovers the body of a young man on the floor of the dressing room. From the looks of the flower petals falling from his mouth, he'd chomped down Regina's bridal bouquet. Having recently studied poisoned plants in the library, Daisy knows all of the flowers in Regina's bouquet are poisonous. She figures someone poisoned the fellow, although she can't quite figure out how. Sam and the usual cast of characters investigate, including their old friend Lou Prophet. Daisy uncovers a long list of possible suspects but the murderer might be closer than anyone suspects. From the Publisher: The Daisy Gumm Majesty Cozy Mystery Series is a light-hearted mystery in a historical setting. There are no explicit sexual scenes and minimal cursing (Lou Prophet can be a little coarse) and will be enjoyed by readers who appreciate clean and wholesome reads. Fans of Carola Dunn, Amanda Quick, Elizabeth Peters, Rhys Bowen, and M. Louisa Locke will not want to miss this series.
