Description: Lily Takes the Field, the second book in the Flower Lady series, is a story of redemption. Lily Porter answers an ad for a room to rent in the home of Hilda, an elderly British widow, telling her she is a widow recently arrived from Manitoba. Hilda and her best friend Magaly become fond of Lily, and-to her surprise-she of them. Lily enjoys exploring Toronto, but her newfound contentment is short-lived. A pedophile is abducting and killing little girls and Lily, now working in a local bookstore, suspects that one of her co-workers might be the culprit. When the child of another employee, is abducted, Lily knows she must act; given Lily's background and proclivities, one almost feels sorry for him. Other complications ensue as some aspects of Lily's former life come back to haunt her. The next and last novel in the trilogy, Messenger of Love, finds Lily living in Charlotte, North Carolina on the same street as her son. Now known as Iris Hart, she inevitably becomes involved in more mayhem.--from the back cover.
