Book Review of A Deadly Yarn (Knitting Mystery, Bk 3)

A Deadly Yarn  (Knitting Mystery, Bk 3)
punkbunny avatar reviewed on + 13 more book reviews


Knitter Kelly Flynn is thrilled that her friend Allison is joining a New York designer's studio. But when the young artist's new life ends before it begins, Kelly must unravel Allison's messy, fast-track social circle-and its lethally wound threads.

This is the third book in Sefton's knitting series and definitely worth the time to read. Sefton continues to develop Kelly's life and add changes to it to keep the reader involved personally as well as with the murder plot. I enjoy the "cozy" knitting theme as well as the plot. The setting is very well done and enjoyable.

In this installment, a fabric artist that Kelly knew is murdered, but it is first seen as a sucide. Kelly can't accept this so begins investigating herself. She actually does a good job of keeping the police involved as well, which is a nice change from many murder mysteries!

We also see developments in Kelly's personal life as she has to decide whether to cut the ties to her DC job and transfer permanently to CO. Hopefully in the next book we will see some more movement in her romantic life as well! Steve has been very patience and is sweet...they definitely need to jump over the line into actually dating!
