The Darling Dahlias and the Eleven O'Clock Lady

The Darling Dahlias and the Eleven O'Clock Lady

New York Times bestselling author Susan Wittig Albert transports readers to the summer of 1934, when a sensational murder shakes up the small Southern town of Darling, Alabamaâ‚¬"and pulls in the ladies of the Darling Dahliasâ‚¬ garden club, who never let the grass grow under their feet when thereâ‚¬s a mystery to solveâ‚¬Â¦

The eleven oâ‚¬clock lady has always been one of garden club president Liz Lacyâ‚¬s favorite spring wildflowers. The plant is so named because the white blossoms donâ‚¬t open until the sun shines directly on them and wakes them up.

But another Eleven Oâ‚¬Clock Lady is never going to wake up again. Rona Jean Hancockâ‚¬"a telephone switchboard operator who earned her nickname because her shift ended at eleven, when her nightlife was just beginningâ‚¬"has been found strangled with her own silk stocking in a very unladylike position.

Gossip sprouts like weeds in a small town, and Rona Jeanâ‚¬s somewhat wild reputation is the topic of much speculation regarding who might have killed her. As the Darling Dahlias begin to sort through Rona Jeanâ‚¬s private affairs, it appears there may be a connection to some skullduggery at the local Civilian Conservation Corps camp. Working at the camp, garden club vice president Ophelia Snow digs around to expose the truthâ‚¬Â¦before a killer pulls up stakes and gets away with murder.
