Book description
All of Cora Chevalier’s dreams are coming true. Since moving to Indigo Gap, North Carolina, the busy crafting maven has been blessed with a great boyfriend, a lovely home, and a booming craft retreat business. But on the eve of her first Crafty Mom’s Escape Weekend, tragedy strikes again in Indigo Gap. This time, it’s curtains for Stan Herald, the disagreeable director of the local theater group, who’s murdered on the opening night of their new production. Worse, Cora’s friend Zee is accused of the crime.

Cora is determined to prove her friend’s innocence, but Zee’s mysterious past is making that difficult. And with a list of suspects longer than a double spool of satin cording, getting a bead on the real culprit won’t be easy. With her friends Jane and Ruby at her side, Cora must string together the clues and solve Stan’s murder before the killer gives an encore performance.

Includes crafting tips!

My thoughts
This is one of my go to series so I was happy to read the latest book in it. I like how crafting is included as part of the story. It is fun to see what Cora has been up to this time around. The idea of a Crafty Mom's Escape Weekend sounded like a great idea and lots of fun right up until a dead body is found. I liked that there were twists in the story as just when I thought I figured it all out there would be a twist and I was wrong. I look forward to visiting Cora and all her friends in the next series.
