The year is 1893, and someone is sabotaging the work of a creative genius in New York City's flower district.
The coppers don't care about flowers. Who can a desperate young entrepreneur turn to for help?
Enter two men who well know the struggles of creative geniuses.
Writer Mark Twain wagers his friend—scientist Nikola Tesla—that he will crack the case first.
But is it really sabotage? Or is someone sending a coded message using the arcane language of flowers?
If flowers could talk, just what would they say? What mystery are they hiding?
A delightful tale set in the horse-and-buggy era of old New York...
This story first appeared in Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine.
