Members of the Seaside Knitters attend a fundraiser for the building of a new community center in Sea Harbor, Massachusetts, and end up embroiled in a murder mystery. Tension runs high because the two companies involved in the project are long-standing enemies. When Sophia, wife of their friend Gracie's Uncle Alphonso, drives her car off the cliff, Nell, Cass, Izzy and Birdie find themselves caught up in the investigation when it is revealed the car's brake lines were cut.

The prime suspect is Gracie's estranged mother, Alphonso's sister, Julianne. Nell and friends refuse to believe Julianne could have been involved in the crime. Because Gracie's in the middle of a divorce, though her soon-to-be ex has been trying to show her he's mending his ways and wants a reconciliation, the Seaside Knitters band together to support their friend and find the real killer. They're successful at unraveling a string of clues, but will they put it all together before the crafty killer strikes again?

Sally Goldenbaum's MOON SPINNERS is the third in the Seaside Knitters mystery series. It moves along at a leisurely pace, giving the reader a strong sense of location and mood as these intrepid detectives band together to help a friend. This is the first I've read in the series, and I thoroughly enjoyed the story and different personalities of the women. I did feel like I missed a bit in understanding the depth of the relationships between the characters by not reading the first couple of books, but this is an entertaining, stand- alone mystery.

SUMMARY

Stitch and sleuth in the third delightful knitting mystery from the author of Patterns in the Sand.

In the quaint fishing village of Sea Harbor, Massachusetts, the Seaside Knitters are always looking for a new project. Their latest is helping their friend Gracie Santos open the Lazy Lobster and Soup Café on Pelican Pier. But they get sidetracked when Gracie's aunt Sophia goes flying off the cliff in her red Ferrari-and it was no accident. As gossip builds, and rumors circulate, the Seaside Knitters must stitch together the clues if they're to understand a killer's strange pattern.
