I think I'm going to read The Secrets of Blythswood Square for this one. As a bonus, it has a gorgeous cover that fits the gardening theme!
Big Little Lies, The Dinner Guest, and The Guest List would all fit well for this.Like Laura, I don't think I'll plan for this as it will come up naturally.
I should find one naturally, but I will recommend The Candymakers. It's one of the best all-ages books that I never hear anyone talk about.

Oooh mysterious! I have no idea what to read!!
I am, in fact, reading a book RIGHT NOW that would fit this perfectly. I'm not enjoying it, but I think it will appeal to the right reader. If you like character-driven meandering stories that float back and forth between past and present in a sort of stream-of-consciousness style, you may enjoy Amanda.
