Spotlight and Giveaway: The Poison Garden

We're starting off Halloween week with a new thriller! The Poison Garden is A.J. Banner's latest novel and it sounds intriguing. We are excited (and a little bit scared) to see what's behind that cryptic cover. Thanks to Kathleen Carter Communications, we have TWO copies to give away!

Reminiscent of classic thrillers in which a character’s home becomes a threatening and dangerous place, THE POISON GARDEN is set in a beautiful Victorian home on an island in the Pacific Northwest, surrounded by lush gardens. Elise, the novel’s protagonist, appears to have it all—a happy marriage, lovely home, and dream job running her late mother’s herbal boutique. Working in her mother’s space, with the plants she cultivated from her gardens, brings a sense of comfort and pride to Elise. Despite her grief, she’s never been happier.

But on the eve of her first wedding anniversary, Elise makes a shocking discovery. One that leaves her questioning everything she thought she knew—about her marriage, her mother’s death, her friends, and even herself. With every passing day, she treads deeper into dangerous territory and she is forced to wonder: Is her whole future at stake? Or is paranoia getting the best of her? If she is to believe what she sees, Elise has every reason to fear for her life…

Chilling and atmospheric with a shocking conclusion, THE POISON GARDEN is dizzying tale of deception that questions the bonds of love and loyalty, obsession and greed, and betrayal and forgiveness.

“A fast-paced ride that leaves you guessing until the last page. The Poison Garden is sure to please fans of Banner’s work. Engrossing and fun, I read it in one sitting.”
—Catherine McKenzie, bestselling author of The Good Liar and I’ll Never Tell

“A. J. Banner has crafted yet another wonderfully dark tale of love and loss with The Poison Garden, a fast-paced, twisted ride into the depths of obsession and deceit.”
—Victoria Helen Stone, bestselling author of Jane Doe
