Poison Lilies: A Novel

The Ambassador Court Thriller is a gripping follow-up to the international bestseller Dark August, plunging readers into a web of secrets and lies that will keep them on the edge of their seats until the very end.

When Gus Monet moves back to her hometown after solving her mother's murder, she thought she was finally settled.

But it's not to be.

A mistake she can't undo leads her to cut and run, only to find herself at The Ambassador Court, an art-deco apartment building with cheap rent in one of Ottawa's oldest neighborhoods.

There, she meets Poppy Honeywell, a reclusive elderly neighbor who happens to be a descendant of the Mutchmores, one of the city's founding families.

When a body emerges from an icy pond in a nearby park, Gus's curiosity with Poppy and her influential family takes a perilous turn with deadly consequences.

The Mutchmores have been hiding a treacherous secret for decades—one they are willing to sacrifice anything—and anyone—to keep buried.

Little do they know, that's just the kind of secret Gus can't resist.

Will she uncover the truth before it's too late? Find out in this eerily riveting thriller that will keep you guessing until the very end.
