I noticed at our local library a series of mysteries by Edith Maxwell featuring an organic gardener who solves crimes. Books in the series all have titles like Farmed and Dangerous, Murder Most Fowl, and Mulch Ado about Murder. In the spirit of authorial solidarity, I hearby offer Ms. Maxwell some further titles for her consideration:

  • Compost Mortem
  • The Berried Copse
  • Too Cloche for Comfort
  • The Deadheading
  • Shears Terror
  • The Bone Meal
  • Tilth Death Us Part
  • The Cold Frame
  • The Cutting
  • Loves Lies Bleeding
  • The Haulm before the Storm
  • A Rake’s Progress
  • The Scion’s Graft
  • Roots of Evil
