Murder in the Lab: Inside The Botanist’s Assistant With Peggy Townsend
In this episode, I’m joined by award-winning author and journalist Peggy Townsend to talk about her sharp, heartfelt, and wonderful new mystery, The Botanist’s Assistant.
In The Botanist’s Assistant, we meet Margaret Finch—six feet tall, fiercely organized, lover of schedules, and proud inhabitant of a tiny cabin in the woods. Her obsessive attention to detail makes her indispensable in her university botany lab… and it may also put a target on her back when she decides a recent death is no accident.
Peggy and I discuss the inspiration behind The Botanist’s Assistant, the fun four-legged character and her unusual book reviewers on her Instagram page. Hint—they like to review books from their Hen House!

St. Sukie de la Croix Co-hosts On the Air with Florenza
From hair-dos to hair-don’ts — this killer curls into chaos.
During this episode of On the Air with Florenza, I’m joined by the phenomenally talented author St. Sukie De la Croix to discuss his newest book, The Hunt for the Hairdo Killer.
Enter the wild, high-camp world of Palm Springs, where curly-top conspiracies meet slapstick sleuthing in Twilight Manors in Palm Springs: The Hunt for the Hairdo Killer. When retired-detective duo Brian & Stéphane stumble upon a madman wiring women’s curlers with lethal surprises, the stakes go higher than a bouffant. Mobsters, poodles, a grieving cat named Fish Paste, trigger-happy gardeners filming Godzilla vs. Frida Kahlo, giraffes, and even a wardrobe-malfunctioning waitress licked by the “Forever Marilyn” statue—everything’s off the hook and off the rails.
If you thought tradition was tame, this book proves you’ve never witnessed a bad perm gone full thriller. Written by archival legend St. Sukie De la Croix—historian, raconteur, and the gay Studs Terkel of the Midwest—this is satire, absurdity, and mystery dressed in drag and ready to party.
