In Anne Canadeo's cozy eighth Black Sheep Knitting Mystery,
a cold-hearted murder in Plum Harbor leads the knitters to
investigate a new psychic who may be far more dangerous than
she seems…
When Jimmy Hubbard, the manager of the
local cinema, is murdered in a robbery gone wrong, the
residents of Plum Harbor are mystified. Everyone liked
Jimmy, and the struggling theater seems an unlikely target
for burglars.
The Black Sheep Knitters are surprised
and saddened by the crime, but are more suspicious of
psychic-medium Isabel Waters, who has recently set up shop
in town. Isabel has hoodwinked one of their friends into
shelling out big money every week to keep the memory of a
lost loved one alive. Determined to reveal Isabel as a
fraud, the knitters are pulled in the web of Isabel’s world
and find themselves in a tangle of secrets and lies. They
must solve two murders before the truth about all of
Isabel’s clients—past and present—are revealed.
As
in her previous books A Dark and Stormy Knit, The
Silence of the Llamas, and Knit, Purl, Die—which
Publishers Weekly praised for its “fast-paced plot
that will keep even non-knitters turning the pages”—Canadeo
brings her trademark style to this entertaining mystery that
will psych you out and leave you wanting more.
