On the eve of World War I in England, roses are the name of the game, rather than the rising tension in Prussia, in Arlen's third Lady Montfort outing (after Death Sits Down to Dinner). Along with her stalwart cook sidekick, Mrs. Jackson, Lady Montfort once again puts her detecting skills to use to solve the poisoning death of a member of the local amateur rose breeders society.
