Abby and Marco have finally finished moving into their new home, and they are looking to spruce up the property with some shrubs. Abby is super excited to find a landscape business, DK's Landscape Center, which boasts the use of no harmful chemicals, toxic applications or herbicides. But when Dick Kennison, the owner of DK’s, shows up dead, Abby's best friend, Nikki Hudike, is thrown front and center as murder suspect #1. When Marco falls mysteriously ill, Abby has more than one mystery on her hands to solve in order to help the people she loves.

The books in the Flower Shop Mystery series can always be expected to deliver action-packed, vivid, well-written and thoroughly enjoyable story lines, and Yews With Caution is no exception! This book starts off action packed and stays that way throughout the entire book. I was so drawn into the mystery that I couldn't put the book down. I felt like I was on an emotional roller coaster through most of the book and was happy to see how the story played out. The characters in this series are well-developed and complex, and the relationships run deep. Although this is the 19th book in the series, the story was fresh and new, and it can be read as a standalone.
