The town of Crestwood is reeling over the death of Oliver “Ollie” Harrington. Unfortunately, Ollie’s death also leaves quite a few people claiming he had made promises to them over the years regarding the disbursement of his estate and wealth. Meanwhile, Ollie’s twin sister, Adele Harrington, moves in immediately and ruffles feathers, both with her seemingly icy demeanor and her plans for the estate. Who poisoned Ollie? The Crestwood Quilters are determined to regain peace in their small town, even if it means finding another murderer.

I love how quilts continue to play such a central role in the Queen Bees Quilt Shop series! Adele commissions the Crestwood Quilters to create quilts for the bed and breakfast she intends to open at the Harrington estate. Sally Goldenbaum magnificently shows us the art of quilting and the care that is taken in carefully selecting and piecing together such beautiful works of art.

A BIAS FOR MURDER is the third book in the Queen Bees Quilt Shop series and can be read as a standalone. Sally Goldenbaum helpfully provides new readers with a list of the main characters with a short description of each one. The relationships between the quilters are part of the enjoyment of the Queen Bees Quilt Shop series and I suspect new readers will want to read the two earlier books to get to know the characters even better. A BIAS FOR MURDER is yet another charming crafty cozy mystery that is sure to delight readers!
