Mystery Cozy

Betty Hechtman knits up murder and mayhem in the latest in the national bestselling Yarn Retreat Mystery series.

Casey Feldstein has her hands full with preparations at the Vista Del Mar hotel on the scenic Monterey Peninsula as another yarn retreat begins. The retreaters will be thrown for a loop this time, learning the trendy art of arm knitting and finger crocheting.

But not everyone is enthusiastic about trying something new, and Casey is forced to come up with an alternative craft for her less adventurous pupils. Things go from worst to worsted when a travel writer from a neighboring retreat group is found dead in his room among a sea of feathers. When one of the owners of Vista Del Mar pleads for help, Casey gets hooked into the case and must unravel a delicate skein of secrets to catch a killer.

Re: A Tangled Yarn

This is definitely one that I want to share with my sister. I
think we would both enjoy it.

That is one sly looking kitty! But a sea of feathers? Clearly the seagulls did it!

This sounds like a fun read. My daughter had a go at arm
knitting and found it great fun.

We are suppose to have a very bad winter, so this will be a great book to read while watching it snow

With five furry finksof my own, I am not surprised by your cover. LOL What an interesting and tempting read.
(

Being a crafter myself, this sounds like the best mystery
ever.

I had a family friend attempt to teach me how to knit. It didn't go well. My
grandmother was a seamstress. She tried to teach me how to sew. It ended
badly. I'm sensing a pattern here. But I can make no-sew throw blankets.
That counts, right?!
Can't wait to read Casey's story-Betty!

I am hoping to win-- I haven't read any of your books and am
anxious to do so. I do knit, crochet and quilt !
(

Ok, I knit. I can crochet some things.
(

What a great cover. T
(

I'm not the most skilled knitter I must admit, so perhaps reading about it
would be the best option for me! 😂
(
Olivia Silva 7:14pm August 25, 2017)

Looks like a fun story. I do crochet so I enjoy all the puns
there.I so enjoy these cozies and all the characters within.
(

(

I love mysteries but you have added something quite intriguing. I've never heard of arm knitting. It sounds fascinating but I can't imagine how it is done.
(
Anna Speed 5:12pm August 26, 2017)

This is a book that I would love to read!
(

What about the cat hope he/she didn't do it but if it had a good reason protecting the sea gulls
(
