"Harry" Haristeen hat gesundheitliche Probleme und muß ins Krankenhaus.
Zum Glück hat sie jedoch ihre tierischen Freunde und ihren stets hilfsbereiten Mann, um sie zu unterstützen. Andere haben da deutlich weniger Glück. Zwei Angestellte des Krankenhauses werden kurz hintereinander tot aufgefunden. Und wenn Harry ein Geheimnis wittert, ist es zu erwarten, dass sie und ihre Menagerie ihre Nase aus diesem Fall nicht heraushalten können."
Kurzbeschreibung:
Ah, spring! The brighter days and singing birds have a way of lifting people's spirits, as well as those of their animal companions. But the season can also bring out the first blossoms of murder. As the redbuds open in Crozet, Virginia, Mary Minor "Harry" Haristeen is especially excited - until a health crisis sends her reeling into the forbidding world of hospitals and doctors, treatments and procedures. Surviving this journey will be tough, but Harry has her animal friends - and her ever-helpful husband, Fair - to support her. Others are considerably less fortunate: A promising nurse's lifeless body is discovered without a mark on her. Then another hospital employee, who had seemed in perfect health, is also found dead. There's a mystery afoot - and that's one thing Harry and her menagerie can't keep their noses out of.
