About the Book
A murder in her yarn shop’s backyard puts Libby Beckett’s holiday plans on thin ice.…
The holiday season looks merry and bright for Libby and her friends at Y.A.R.N. The store is expanding for a holiday boom, and she’s gathered Collinstown’s businesses to decorate a community Christmas tree. Dashing “Gallant Herdsman” Vincenzo Marani arrives to showcase the rare vicuña, whose coat produces the world’s most luxurious yarn. It’s a perfect yuletide—until Libby’s ex-husband, Sterling, turns up in town…and then turns up dead.
The murder unravels Libby’s life faster than a hand-knit Christmas stocking. The luxe yarn goes missing, Sterling’s domineering family comes to town, and the vicuña attempt an escape. If Libby can’t stitch up a solution to the case, she may be trading in her knitting needles for a set of handcuffs.
This book is the 3rd book in the series, but could be read as a standalone. I would recommend that the books be read in order to get the full picture of what Collinstown is like and what has transpired in the past. I found the book to be well written. As soon as they found the body, I thought "I think 'X' did it." and I was correct. I didn't figure out the why until right before it was revealed in the book. This is not a Christian book (at one point they mention that 'God or Mother Nature did a good job of creating-whichever you believe in"), but it is clean.
