Patterns Of Murder
Monica Ferris
Three fan favorites, featuring needle shop owner Betsy
DevonshireCrewel World, Framed in Lace,
and A Stitch in Time. Crewel World (originally published 03/99)
When Betsy Devonshire arrived in Excelsior, Minnesota, all
she wanted was to visit her sister Margot and to get her
life in order. She never dreamed her sister would give her a
place to stay and a job at her needlecraft shop. In fact,
things had never looked so gooduntil Margot was
murdered...
The art of needlecraft requires patience, discipline, and
creativity. So, too, does the art of detection. Just ask
Betsywho's learning that life in a small-town
needlecraft shop can reveal an unexpected knack for
knitting...and a hidden talent for unravelling crime.
Framed in Lace (originally published 10/99)
When the historic Hopkins ferry was raised from the bottom
of the lake, who would have thought they were literally
raising the dead! But there it wasa
skeletonright before their eyes. Unfortunately, the
evidence is slim and soggy: The boat sank in 1949, the
victim on board was a woman, and near the body is a piece of
unidentified lacelike fabric. Sounds like a job for Betsy
Devonshire! Betsy knows there's more to this story than
what's on the surface. And once she and patrons of her
needlecraft shop start lending a hand, they're sure to
stitch together the details ...
A Stitch in Time (originally published 07/00)
Betsy is settling into Excelsior, MN, and so is winter. But
duty calls: an old tapestry has been found in the Episcopal
Church, and it needs restoration. This is a job for Crewel
Worldand a pleasant one, after that poor skeleton.
Better an old tapestry than an old body! Since this is
Minnesota, when Betsy is beset, her friends bring hot-dish.
