A body in the garden
Ruled a peaceful accident. It wasn’t. Merge clues up the chain — scrap to photo to letter to key to diary — and assemble the case the town wants buried.
A merge-mystery soap · Coming to iOS
Dahlia
The prettiest, deadliest little street in America.
A rootless woman inherits a mansion from a stranger — and the “tragic accident” that killed its matriarch unravels into forbidden love, blackmail, and a forty-year-old murder the whole town buried to protect its golden reputation. Merge your way to the truth… if the neighbors let you.
Join the waitlist — we’ll send your key to Larkspur Court the moment the gate opens.
The premise
Beauty is the best disguise cruelty ever wore.
Build the garden, develop the photo, read the diary — every merge digs up another secret. The board is the investigation.
Everyone’s guilty of something
A forbidden romance. A buried debt. A pastor’s roses that aren’t roses. Five suspects, five secrets — and the prettiest people hiding the ugliest things.
Befriend the people who lie to you
Help your neighbors, win their trust, and learn which warm smile is the one still holding the shovel.
Larkspur Court
Meet the neighbors.
Everybody here would die for each other, sugar. Somebody already did.
Margo Sutton
The nosy neighbor
Knows every secret on Larkspur Court — and trades them like currency.
Thea Ashford
The neighbor next door
Charming, recently widowed, and always in someone else's garden — especially Dahlia's.
Rebecca Calloway
The widow
Dahlia's estranged sister. Grieving — or performing it beautifully.
Pastor Lena Crane
The town's conscience
Buried half of Larkspur Court. Smiles like she's still holding the shovel.
Det. Nora Maddox
The detective
New in town and certain the 'gardening accident' was anything but.
Junie Park
The gardener
Dahlia's young assistant. Knows which flowers are poison — and who planted them.
The estate
A gorgeous town built on a forty-year-old lie.
Restore the dead woman’s house while you uncover her murder. The meta-loop and the mystery are the same act.
