Pansy Uprooted
Book One in The Flower Ladies Trilogy
Salton is a quiet, upper middle-class suburb whose denizens live quiet, uncomplicated lives…until now.
Rose and Judy are members of the “Symphony Seven,” founders and board members of the Salton Symphony. When Rose, a widow and mother of three adult children, wakes up in hospital with a concussion, she doesn’t remember how she was injured, but she is able to tell the police how she found her friend Judy bludgeoned to death.
Not long after, another of their circle finds the body of her tenant. Will the women’s friendship survive the shocking revelations they never imagined would touch a tight-knit community like Salton?
"I had intended to read this book over the course of a week, but instead I finished it in two days. Pansy Uprooted is like Agatha Christie meets Mary Higgins Clark. The story is complex and involved, combining family drama with psychological thriller. I can’t wait for D. A. Spruzen’s next book!”
