While the Seaside Knitters get ready to showcase their new event, locals cant stop talking about Tess Bean a bright-eyed environmental activist with a way of charming both animals and humans alike. But not everyone is a fan of Tess, especially after she starts questioning the clean practices of small-business owners. When a popular bar owner whom Tess calls out for bad practices is found dead, its not long before she tops the suspect list for murder. The Seaside Knitters must solve a dangerous mystery that not only threatens to unravel the fabric of their community, but also the lives of those they care about the most.
Praise for Sally Goldenbaum's previous mystery, Murder Wears Mittens:
"Comforting.... Goldenbaum has created an idyllic world in which good friends, good works, and discussing the passing of time and changes in the community are as important as solving crimes." --Publishers Weekly
"Murder Wears Mittens is not another crime mystery like any other mystery. Sally Goldenbaum's characters feel for one another. It is a brilliantly written crime mystery, full of suspense and human warmth. Sally Goldenbaum knows how to monopolize your attention with her characters and writing style." --The Washington Book Review
"The Seaside Knitters go all out to solve another murder . . . This one keeps you guessing a bit longer than usual and features such caring sleuths you can't help but like them." --Kirkus Reviews
"An intriguing murder . . . Izzy and her fellow Seaside Knitters feel an obligation to find the truth . . . Happily, a sock pattern is appended." --Booklist
"A beautifully written mystery full of warmth and surprises." --Nancy Pickard, New York Times bestselling author
