The national bestselling author of the Seaside
Knitters mysteries returns to find the Crestwood Quilters on
pins and needles when a killer strikes. . .
As owners of the popular bistro The French Quarter, former
New York City restauranteurs Picasso and Laurel St. Pierre
are the toast of the town of Crestwood, Kansas. Chef
Picasso’s culinary creations delight the women of the
quilting club, who have embraced him as a friend. But
Laurel’s anti-social behavior confuses Kate Simpson—until
she spots Mrs. St. Pierre with another man in what appears
to be a lover’s spat.
Gossip travels fast in a small town like Crestwood, and
rumor has it this isn’t Laurel’s first indiscretion. She
also filed a police report accusing Picasso of domestic
abuse. And when Laurel’s murdered body is found Picasso is
the prime suspect. To prove their friend’s innocence, Kate
and the Crestwood Quilters must uncover the secrets of
Laurel’s past—a patchwork history wrapped up in Kate’s own
teenage years . . .
