MURDER AT THE NARCISSUS GARDENING CLUB
A brilliant Agatha Christie style puzzle mystery, with a provocative psychological edge.
Christine Buckley
MURDER AT THE NARCISSUS GARDENING CLUB
You haven't seen this book before. This is a truly fresh piece of work, a whodunnit that's disturbingly relevant. Margot Gray has an intoxication with life, but she lives in the corners, the area where most people only imagine human nature can go.
Karley Flegerbein
MURDER AT THE NARCISSUS GARDENING CLUB
A must-read for those who enjoy deconstructing compelling characters... a truly cathartic ending.

If you appreciate complex characters, intriguing yet relatable plots, and psychological whodunnits, then this book is tailor-made for you.

Mystery of Placid house
Margot Grey makes a triumphant return! I adore her; she's simply irrepressible. I'm eagerly anticipating more from this series.

Mystery of Placid house
You won’t guess the ending… but all the clues are ingeniously laid out. Prepare for a twist that's both unimaginable and yet firmly rooted in reality.

These books kept me reading. I could relate to so much of the material, it either got me thinking, taught me about myself and my loved ones, or confirmed that I'm on track with some areas in my life from psych terms, which was nice. Great investment of time and money to have these books within reach.

I really liked that I could hear Kirsty's voice coming through in these Signposts books. I felt like she was just taking me aside and talking me through some issues that I really want to work on. It's like having a psychologist in my bookshelf.

I'm up to Book 4, Understanding Others; Loved Ones to Tricky Ones and I can't put it down. People in my life are just jumping off the page. I wish I had this book series earlier, it could have saved me a lot of grief and it could have sped me up in figuring out this crazy thing that life is. Well done Kirsten, immense achievement getting all that good stuff in these six books. Highly, highly recommend!
