Description
The USA Today bestselling author of Dangling by a Thread serves up "a taut, tasty mystery . . . remains a puzzle until the end" (Boothbay Register).
In the coastal town of Haven Harbor, blood runs thicker than water—and just as freely . . .
Antique dealer Sarah Byrne has never unspooled the truth about her past to anyone—not even friend and fellow Mainely Needlepointer Angie Curtis. But the enigmatic Aussie finally has the one thing she's searched for all her life—family. And now she and long-lost half-brother, Ted Lawrence, a wealthy old artist and gallery owner in town, are ready to reveal their secret connection . . .
Ted's adult children are suspicious of their newfound aunt Sarah—especially after Ted, in declining health, announces plans to leave her his museum-worthy heirloom paintings. So when Ted is poisoned to death during a lobster bake, everyone assumes she's guilty. If Sarah and Angie can't track down the real murderer in time, Sarah's bound to learn how delicate—and deadly—family dynamics can truly be . . .
Praise for the Mainely Needlepoint mysteries

"A cozy debut that hits all the sweet spots: small town, family ties, and a crew of intriguing personalities."—Library Journal
"For a trip to Maine for the cost of a book, this is the author to read."—Kings River Life Magazine

In the coastal town of Haven Harbor, blood runs thicker than water—and just as freely . . .
Antique dealer Sarah Byrne has never unspooled the truth about her past to anyone—not even friend and fellow Mainely Needlepointer Angie Curtis.
