Content descriptions
| General Note: | The second book in the Victoria Trumbull/Martha's Vineyard series. |
| Summary, etc.: | When lonely recluse Phoebe Eldredge decides to sell 200 acres of beautiful, unspoiled land to a developer rather than leave it to her crass, rude descendents, the Conservation Trust enlists 92-year-old Victoria Trumbull, amateur sleuth, as someone who will not be suspected, to search that land for an endangered plant, any endangered plant, because the state of Massachusetts prohibits bulldozing rare plant habitats. With her trusty eleven-year-old after-school assistant, Victoria searches out a patch of endangered cranefly orchids. Her first find, though, is the body of one Montgomery Mausz, the developer's rather dubious attorney. |
