No sooner than a thirteen-year-old child begs Lawrence Kingston to reinvestigate her mother's disappearance-a case still unsolved for eight years-the redoubtable botanist, professor, and sleuth receives news that an English rose, extinct for half a century, has been discovered growing on Alcatraz island, 5, 000 miles from its former home.
As Kingston searches for clues to both mysteries he uncovers the murder of an elderly reclusive gentleman whom he suspects of having firsthand knowledge of the rose.
Hampered by a fog of duplicity and lies, his investigation nevertheless leads him to a shocking discovery, the last thing he would ever suspect: a link to one of Britain's most notorious crimes from the distant past.
The Alcatraz Rose is a multi-layered adventure that starts with an innocent cry for help, but turns into a treacherous roller coaster ride that ends with lives hanging in the balance-including Lawrence Kingston's.
About the Author: ANTHONY EGLIN BIO English-born Anthony Eglin spent many years in the ad business, in England and the U.
, before closing his successful agency to indulge in his passion for gardening pursuits.
In 1995, as a partner in a film production company, he co-produced a series of bestselling garden videotapes and won Garden Design magazine's Gold Trowel Award for best Rose Garden.
Since then he has authored five internationally popular garden mystery novels, including The Blue Rose, which, in 2006, was awarded France's prestigious Prix Arsene Lupin for mystery novel of the year.
A member of the American Rose Society, Anthony and his wife, along with tabby cat Will (Feral), live in California's Wine Country.
Like Kingston, he's addicted to the London Times cryptic crosswords, once in a while finishing one without cheating-or so he claims.
