SYNOPSIS:
Nature’s Way Market and Café sells healthy foods and natural cures for what ails you. But there is no cure for murder. . . .
Even
naturopathic doctors need a little stress relief—that’s why Willow
McQuade, ND, takes a break to visit her Aunt Claire, owner of Nature’s
Way Market and Café, on Long Island’s North Fork. But Willow’s serenity
is shattered when she finds her aunt’s lifeless body on the market
floor, a bottle of Mimulus lying nearby. Taken to calm one’s fear of
misfortune, the flower essence clearly failed Aunt Claire . . . for her
death was no accident.
But who would want to kill her? The police
soon zero in on Willow herself, who stands to inherit Claire’s business
and the rights to a breakthrough anti-aging cream. Desperate to prove
her innocence, Willow turns to former police officer Jackson Spade for
help. Together they unearth a slew of suspects, each with something to
gain by Claire’s unnatural demise. But as Willow gets closer to the
truth, a killer waits to administer one final dose of death.

This book ties in two loves of mine: cozy mysteries and naturopathy! I have been using naturopathic medicine for many years. It's a bit of a hobby of mine, and my home office has one wall devoted to naturopathic healing books! When I saw this new cozy mystery series, I just knew that I had to read it!
