Excerpt from Rosemary for Remembrance
The chart listed plants and the traditional meaning given to each one with drawings paraded across the page. Six were circled.
Abigail compared the greenery in her bouquet to the sketches. Basil for hate. Fennel for grief. Elder for misfortune.
She ran her tongue over dry lips. Someone had marked this book, called the library and reserved it in her name. That same person had made up a bouquet of hate and delivered it to her office.
She discovered a crushed rose tangled in the stems of the plants and remembered that today was August 1stand 50 years ago, Rosemary had only one week to live.
