Caprice De Luca Home Staging Mystery Series, Book 3

Caprice De Luca’s latest house staging is all about hearts, flowers, lace and chintz since Valentine’s Day is around the corner. She never expects her client to be murdered in the greenhouse the day of the open house.

With her six-month-old pup Lady by her side and her own love life in disarray, Caprice ferrets out clues from the victim’s best friend, Caprice’s mother, the housekeeper and a special male friend who insists his relationship with the victim was platonic. However, as Caprice digs deeper, she finds the victim’s past is filled with secrets that she kept from her husband for thirty years.

The past isn’t merely history. The present isn’t always what it seems. When hearts are involved, passion and even murder aren’t far behind.
