Ancient secrets cannot remain buried forever. Founded two centuries ago by an aloof and powerful tribe of Gottwa Indians, Rowan was a quiet town, so quiet that I fled after graduation. Staying away was the plan, but Mom died suddenly, so I rushed home. After we made preparations for Mom's burial, Cruz, the new medical examiner, arrived. He was unnervingly handsome, glowed like a human firefly, and knew absolutely nothing about examining dead bodies. But, he did know what killed my mother, or rather who. Find out in Rose Petal Graves by Olivia Wildenstein.

I tried so hard to get into this book. I wanted to like it really I did but it was extremely hard to read. The characters felt extremely flat and unrealistic in how they talked. I felt like it dragged on and on through out the book. I wanted less details and more action of what was happening. I don't recommend this book.
