À propos de cet ebook

“Deep atmosphere, secrets from the past and a mystery . . . another winner” from the USA Today bestselling author of Twisted Threads (RT Book Reviews).
 
It’s hard to imagine anything bad ever happening in picturesque Haven Harbor, Maine—until a famous face rolls into town and unthreads some very dark secrets . . .

Angie Curtis and the Mainely Needlepointers are all too familiar with the Gardener estate. The crumbling Victorian mansion, known as “Aurora,” has been sitting vacant for nearly twenty-five years—and some say it’s haunted by the ghost of Jasmine Gardener, the teenage girl who died there in 1970 under mysterious circumstances . . .

Harbor Haven is abuzz with excitement when Hollywood actress Skye West decides to buy Aurora and sell off its furnishings. And Angie is intrigued when Skye asks her to appraise the estate’s sizable collection of needlepoint pictures. But the more she examines the pieces, the more they seem to point toward Jasmine’s murder—and the murderer—and it’s up to her to stitch the clues together . . .
