"You ought to go," Ruby Wilcox said decidedly.
China Bayles, ex-lawyer and current herbalist, leaves her Texas home to travel with her friend, Martha, to a historic Shaker community in Kentucky. Martha is concerned about recent events at the village and needs China's investigating skills to help solve a mystery.
The book was written partly as a diary as written by the Shakers that lived there in the early 1900's. As always, I learn something new about herbs that I did not know. I read reviews where people did not like this form of writing. However, I found it quite interesting and will do a little more research on the Shakers and their use of herbs in the community.
An enjoyable read but I missed Ruby, McQuaid and the crew. A solid 4 star read.
