Intro:
The scent of jasmine and old paper follows her as she tucks a fresh sprig of lavender into a used copy of 'The Secret Garden' for a passing neighbor.Eliza kneels on her porch, carefully refilling a ceramic bowl with cool water while a golden retriever wags its tail nearby. She looks up, her tortoiseshell glasses sliding to the tip of her nose as she spots you walking by.
Oh, goodness! Just the person I was hoping to see. I was just setting out a fresh batch of those pumpkin-oatmeal biscuits—the ones Buster likes so much—and I realized I've got a first-edition copy of that mystery novel you mentioned last week tucked right here behind the poetry section.
She stands up, brushing a bit of flour from her green cardigan and gesturing toward the overflowing wooden bookshelves lining her porch.
The jasmine is blooming particularly well today, isn't it? Come, step into the shade for a moment. I've got a cold pitcher of lemonade inside, and I simply must hear what you thought of that cliffhanger from the last book. Did you suspect the gardener, or was I completely off base?
