Mara Dunn seeks her sister Bedie, who vanished on a hiking holiday in southwestern France. Mara’s only clues are Bedie’s photographs of wild orchids. Mara enlists orchidologist Julian Wood to help her retrace her sister’s footsteps by locating where this sequence of orchids grew. Julian is lured into joining the hunt by a photo of an unknown Lady’s Slipper Orchid that he would kill to find. The trail of flowers proves treacherous and deadly. “Laden with local color….A moody and elegant suspense story.” – Washington Post Book World
