Add a gaggle of college students on a mini semester-at-sea voyage, a rusting hulk of a ship that misses more ports than it makes, and two deaths by poisonous butterfly, and Harriet is off and running on a hair-raising adventure. And that’s before two coeds, Kate and Carly, go missing–Carly being her boss’s daughter.
Pulled into a dangerous web of bioethical intrigue, Harriet races against time. If the killer isn’t stopped, Kate and Carly will die–and that may only be the beginning of his plans for destruction.
With scant clues and fewer resources, Harriet must track down the college girls–and outmaneuver a murderer who is only part of an elaborate plot of medical madness. Travel writing certainly isn’t what Harriet thought it would be.
Spiked with suspense and bioethical intrigue,The Butterfly Farminvites you to solve a Caribbean puzzle with travel’s most delightful woman of mystery.媒体推荐Praise forThe Butterfly Farm

“Diane Noble has created an intriguing mystery and delightful heroine inThe Butterfly Farm. Harriet is wise, intelligent, and compassionate, solving the crime with a spunky determination that kept me up way past my bedtime. A terrific and versatile writer, Ms. Noble had me alternately laughing, holding my breath and cheering as Harriet followed God's leading when almost everyone else thought she was a bit barmy. I can't wait for the next book!”
