Synopsis

Molly Pink can't help seeing a pattern of trouble in the latest mystery from the national bestselling author of Seams Like Murder.

The Tarzana Hookers' Yarn University has been a big success, and the classes have drawn in a slew of new crochet devotees. A less welcome arrival is the boxy monstrosity in the yard behind Molly's house. She hasn't met her new neighbors, but when she sees a couple struggling on the balcony and later spies what looks like someone lying on the ground, Molly wastes no time calling in her ex, homicide detective Barry Greenberg.

To Molly's shock, Barry reports that nothing is amiss with her neighbors and asks her to lay off with the amateur detecting. Molly knows she wasn't just seeing things, but with no body to prove her case she'll have to unravel the evidence on her own—because someone in Tarzana is tangled up in murder . . .

this was very enjoyable to read. it's a cozy mystery which is a genre i've never read before and was excited to read. the book is about an ordinary woman, not a detective who solves mysteries. i liked that it's. not a detective solving mysteries because i think that it makes. the character more rela......more

This one was a little different in that there was no outright murder. I had to keep convincing myself that something must have happened and we would eventually get to it.......more

Goodreads review by Gretchen on August 02, 2017

This will be my last "Crochet Mystery." I just can't get past my general irritation with the genre. The characters are kind of dull, the mysteries are tame to the point of being sleep-inducing, and the plots are mind-numbingly slow moving. I can see the appeal of these for certain readers but I just......more
