"Alice Greenwood's sense of humour is never needed more than in her widowhood. She takes casual positions in local households in the Yorkshire town of Masham, where she also sells herbs as the Lavender Girl, though her work leads her into difficulties and even danger. The Grey family employ Alice to control their wayward daughter Laura, who rebels against an arranged marriage, then, working for the local doctor, Alice encounters hostility from his groom Jacob Fowler and pompous locum Dr Fanshawe. Further surprises threaten Alice's happiness, when she is unwillingly drawn into a murder mystery - will she be condemned to a life of drudgery?"--Publisher.
