The Const Gardener

Tessa Quayle—beautiful and compassionate—was gruesomely murdered on the shores of Lake Turkana in Northern Kenya.  Her husband Justin—amateur gardener and ineffectual bureaucrat — was seemingly oblivious to his wife's causes while she lived. Elevated by loss, he embarks on a personal odyssey to unravel the forces that brought about Tessa's death, and discovers the remarkable courage of the woman he barely had time to love.
