A Conversation with Kate Khavari
This week on Crime Wave: In A Botanist’s Guide to Tradition and Treachery, Kate Khavari sends brilliant, stubborn botanist Saffron Everleigh on a research expedition to newly formed Turkey—only for the journey to devolve into sabotage, scandal, and murder. Newly engaged to fellow scientist Alexander Ashton, Saffron finds herself battling both the entrenched misogyny of academia and suspicions that she may be tied to the death of a young assistant. Against a backdrop of ancient ruins, venomous snakes, and political intrigue, the pair must untangle a conspiracy before Saffron becomes the expedition’s next casualty. Rich with historical detail and sharp banter, this latest Saffron Everleigh mystery blends classic whodunit suspense with high-stakes archaeological adventure.
