But stitched into its fabric is a cryptic pattern - a series of coded symbols that appear to mirror a series of mysterious deaths from the town's past. When a beloved local baker turns up dead under suspicious circumstances, Marnie can't help but wonder: is someone using the quilt's pattern as a blueprint for murder?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDespite her best intentions to stay uninvolved (\"I run a shop, not a sleuthing society!\"), Marnie finds herself knee-deep in local secrets, long-held rivalries, and enough red herrings to knit a sweater. With the reluctant help of Thimblewick's introverted librarian and a surprisingly tech-savvy teenager, she'll have to follow the thread of clues before another stitch in the pattern is sewn - this time, in her own name.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFull of cozy charm, clever puzzles, and small-town sass, \u003cem\u003eA Stitch in Crime\u003c\/em\u003e is the first in the \u003cstrong\u003eThread \u0026amp; Dead Mystery Series\u003c\/strong\u003e, perfect for fans of crafts, cats, and crimes that don't require a strong stomach.
