Description
Yarn shop owner Kath Rutledge is looking forward to the grand opening of the Blue Plum Vault, a new co-op of small shops, but in the week before the grand opening, two of the new shopkeepers, Nervie and Belinda, declare each other's embroidery patterns and antique embroidered linens fakes, copies—and stolen goods. Kath is caught in the middle when she's asked to use her textile expertise to decide if there's any truth to the accusations.Then, the day before the grand opening, an exquisite tablecloth that Kath has fallen in love with—the pride of Belinda's shop—is found cut to shreds. Belinda accuses Nervie of the outrage, but Nervie has an airtight alibi: she was at Kath's shop, the Weaver's Cat, teaching a crewel embroidery class.Despite worries over the rivalry and vandalism, the opening is a success—until Belinda is found dead, stabbed in the back with a pair of scissors from the Weaver's Cat. Geneva, the ghost who haunts Kath's store, claims she saw the murderer leaving the scene of the crime. But the ghost is the ultimate unreliable witness—only Kath and her shop manager can see or hear her. That means it's up to Kath, TGIF, and especially Geneva the ghost to solve the crime before the killer cuts another life short.

December 1, 2018
The sixth "Haunted Yarn Shop" cozy mystery (after Knot the Usual Suspects) finds Kath Rutledge and her group getting ready for the opening of an arts and crafts emporium in Blue Plum, TN. One of the "shopettes," run by Belinda Moyer, is rumored to be a treasure trove of antique linens. Kath gets in for a sneak peek before opening, and while most of the items are uninteresting, there's an exquisite heirloom that catches her eye and spirit. By the next day, the piece has disappeared--then reappears in the form of partially burned shreds. On opening day, Belinda is found murdered. Theories abound, but Kath and her intrepid group of knitters, plus the shop's resident ghost Geneva, are hot on the trail in no time. VERDICT Though the series as a whole is great fun, combining needlework, a cat, a ghost, and food, this supercozy mystery can easily stand on its own. It's practically guaranteed that those who like this entry will want to read the entire series.--Pamela O'Sullivan, Coll. at Brockport Lib., SUNY
