A Knit Before Dying
A Knit Before Dying
A new business might add some much-needed charm to downtown Dorset Falls, but when someone gets murdered, a close-knit community could come undone . . . Shop owner Josie Blair is finally settling into the pace of living in Dorset Falls, Connecticut. Between running Miss Marple Knits, jumpstarting a blog, and handcrafting items with the help of her knitting pals, Josie's too preoccupied to worry about her past. And thanks to Lyndon and Harry, the owners of the brand-new antique shop next door, she's also busy repurposing a box of vintage crocheted doilies adorned with the most curious needlework . . . But before Josie can formally welcome her neighbors, she discovers Lyndon on the floor of his shop stabbed to death by a rusty old pair of sheep shears. Police have pinned Harry as the killer, but Josie isn't so sure. Now, she's lacing up for another homicide investigation--and no eyelet or stitch can go unexamined, lest she herself becomes ensnared in the criminal's deadly design . . . INCLUDES ORIGINAL KNITTING PATTERNS "Hartwell's charming, humorous, and villainous characters will please cozy fans."
--Publishers Weekly "Plenty of quirky Yankee characters and a clever clue make for an enjoyable read."
