A group of readers has gathered in the bookstore to listen
to a local writer, Danny Bradley, discuss events that might
inspire his writing. Danny tells the story of a young woman
who died in mysterious circumstances fifteen years ago.
Harmony Farrow died on her graduation night and police never
found the killer. Danny's retelling of the story will bring
the horrible consequences of murder to the forefront of the
minds of townsfolk of Sea Harbor.
When Harmony's best friend, Tiffany, is found dead, the
mystery will awaken the curiosity of Nell and the rest of
the Seaside Knitters. Are the two deaths connected? If so,
why the gap of fifteen years? Since both women were
friends with Andy, a drummer in a local band, he now
becomes the number one suspect.
Nell and her friends will take action to find the real
killer. After all, Izzy and Sam are getting married soon
and there must be nothing to mar the celebration.
These books are cozies in the truest sense of the word. The
fifth in the series, Ms. Goldenbaum has built a community of
characters that makes the reader wish they could live there
and interact with the locals. The books focus on the
relationships between the characters and the mystery is
secondary. There is an impression of danger and a few
disturbing events but never enough to distract from the
character interactions. Eminently readable, one always
feels a sense of loss when putting the books down. Ms.
Goldenbaum keeps us coming back for more of the Seaside
Knitters.
Izzy Chambers is about to get married, but much remains to
be done. Then the wedding plans get complicated when the
wedding party's hair stylist begins missing appointments.
When she's found dead, things really begin to unravel.
Rumors circulate about the stylist's past and her
connection to an unsolved murder years ago.
All the Seaside Knitters really know is they must rally to
find some answers, so Izzy can don the wedding shawl
they're surprising her with- and replace the whispers
about town with wedding bells.
