Crafting Deception
On the Canadian coast, a sleuthing seamstress teams up with some resourceful friends to sew up a murder case . . . At the Crafter’s Co-op in Nova Scotia, seamstress Valerie Rankin sells locally made treasures to tourists, from quilted jackets to stained-glass creations. She also puts in time at the Recreate and Recycle Depot, accepting donations of all sorts of useful materials. Her cousin Darlene desperately wishes she could add to the pile by convincing her elderly mother to part with her massive hoard of fabrics and yarn . . . One of the recent donations is a puzzler—a silk parachute dating back to the Second World War. Who dropped it off—and what’s the story behind it? But a bigger and more urgent mystery is about to unfold when the tour bus driver who brings the crowds to the Co-op is found murdered. Valerie’s friend Duck, an animal-loving ex-con, is hauled in by the Royal Canadian Mountain Police. And while it’s said that the Mounties always get their man, they may need some help from a crafty amateur detective this time . . .

One month before opening day, she still has to pin down a venue, patch up the family business, iron out corruption in the town council, and unravel why anyone who tries to help her ends up dead. With the help of her Golden Retriever, an ex-con who loves cats, and a community of first, second, and third cousins, she just might pull it off.
