Book Review: The Scent of Scandal - Greed, Betrayal, and the World’s Most Beautiful Orchid. By Craig Pittman (University Press of Florida 2012)
The clever title of this book is designed to catch the reader’s eye but it is not to be taken literally. Most Lady Slippers don’t have a ‘scent’ and people generally consider these flowers to be interesting or unusual rather than drop dead gorgeous. But the scandal that plays out within this 242 page hardback is as addictive a read as any on a Best Seller list.
