Looming Murder: A Weaving Mystery
Della Wright moved to Briar Hollow in the Blue Ridge Mountains to open a weaving shop. Her shop, called Dream Weavers, is in the house of her childhood friend, Matt, now a criminologist who seems interested in rekindling romance. When Della finds the body of real-estate con man Jeremy Fox, Briar Hollow feels a lot less idyllic, prompting Della to turn sleuth. The weaving details are interesting without overwhelming the clever mystery. Fans of craft mysteries, including those by Amanda Lee, Maggie Sefton, and Monica Ferris, will want to add this new series to their reading lists. --Amy Alessio
