"Melody Ellison is impressed by her sophisticated new friend, Leah Roth, but she wishes her cousin Val would stop being so standoffish to Leah! Melody meets Leah's grandfather, Dr. Roth, a botanist who escaped the Nazis and brought a rare and valuable Lady's Slipper orchid with him to America. When Melody's own grandfather becomes a suspect in a burglary, Melody turns to Val and Leah for help. Yet Leah seems to be hiding something, something to do with her grandfather, that could hurt all of them. Can Melody catch the orchid thief before it's too late?"--Publisher.

The core of the mystery is over stolen orchids, and Melody makes a new friend. The book draws parallels between treatment of Jews in Nazi-occupied Poland to Black people in the Jim Crow South, and while they are comparable, I felt like the way Poppa reacts to his treatment could've been done with more nuance (a minor nitpick). Overall, a quick read. ( )
