About this ebook
The first novel in Mary Kruger’s “lively” (Publishers Weekly) knitting-themed mystery series set in coastal Massachusetts.
Ariadne Evans is the proud owner of her very own knitting shop. And she’s just got herself in a stitch.
When Ariadne enters her knitting store one day to find longtime customer Edith Perry strangled to death with homespun yarn, she fears her life is about to come undone—again, since she’s still getting over a divorce. Her worries increase when she’s questioned by detective Joshua Pierce, who may or may not have designs on her. While Josh pieces together the details of the crime, clues about Ariadne’s ties to Miss Perry come to light...and a bizarre pattern unfolds. Now it’s up to Ariadne to do some sleuthing of her own. Can she untangle the investigation without getting snarled up into too much trouble? That depends on whether the killer is as crafty as she is...

This is a well written book that involves a hand knitting shop and its owner. I highly recommend it - I've been involved with machine knitting and am usually turned off by the kitsy-cutsy, overly sentimental type of books as other books connected with some type of handi-craft usually are - this one isn't! Good writing, interestingly laid out and very believable. Jan B
