The annual Fire & Ice event in Heartsford, Wisconsin, is a highly anticipated event. In fact, it’s the only time the snow and frigid temperatures outside encourage customers to venture out into the community after Christmas. Sammy Kane is excited about her novel idea for the event, as she intends to have live mannequins in the windowfront of her Community Craft store. Unfortunately, one of Sammy’s live mannequins turns up dead – right there in her store window! Can Sammy and the other two members of S.H.E. uncover the real culprit before someone close to them is arrested?
A CRAFTER QUILTS A CRIME is the third book in the Handcrafted Mystery series. While the story can be read as a standalone, I suspect readers will better appreciate it if they are at least somewhat familiar with the characters already. In particular, there are some relationship struggles as well as a few questionable decisions by Sammy that are better understood if a reader knows a bit more about the characters.
I love visiting the Community Craft store! In fact, I love the whole concept of it, as a local store dedicated to crafting events and supplies of all kinds sounds like a dream come true. The live mannequin idea is quirky, but brilliant, and I only wish we could see what other participants had in store for their time in Sammy’s window.
Serie Streaming A CRAFTER QUILTS A CRIME is another fun and engaging cozy mystery from Holly Quinn. Readers who enjoy crafting cozies will appreciate A CRAFTER QUILTS A CRIME for the Community Craft store concept alone, but Holly Quinn’s entertaining mixture of characters will hook readers regardless of their favorite theme in cozy mysteries. I look forward to what trouble S.H.E. will get into next!
