Synopsis
Steph Williams has arrived at the wealthy, gated community of Beaulieu Heights ready to start her new position as head gardener. Surrounded by mansions and acres of land, it's worlds apart from the life she and her enthusiastic dog Mouse know, but she's determined to give it her best shot.
If Steph happens to overhear private conversations while trimming the bushes, or is refused access to a locked shed, she knows not to question it - after all, gardeners should be seen and not heard.
Until notes start turning up, threatening to reveal the deepest secrets of the residents. Suddenly Steph finds herself the prime suspect and must leave the shelter of the gardens behind, to clear her name and save her job.
The seeds of suspicion have been planted, but this case is turning out to be no bed of roses. And, when the investigation puts her own life at risk, Steph is up against the clock to weed out the real culprit before it's too late...
