During a heatwave in Tinkers Cove, Maine, part-time reporter Lucy Stone becomes unseasonably entangled in handmade quiltsand a twisted case of murder . . .
When a community center opens in town, many embrace it as a space where locals of all ages can gather and create. Others view it as a waste of taxpayer dollars. The director, Darleen Busby-Platt, is no less controversial. Intense and showy, Darleen has huge plans for her new role. But Lucy believes the woman isnt exactly as warm heartedor qualifiedas she seems. That hunch deepens when Darleen and a young employee vanish . . . and dismembered remains appear!
With lots of clues and few concrete answers, Lucy rushes to connect loose ends. First theres the disappearance of Tim Stillings, a troubled twenty-something who endured harsh treatment on the job. Next theres Darleen herself, who made fast enemies as the highest-paid resident in Tinkers Cove. Finally, theres Darleens rich ancestry and ties to heirlooms worth either a fortune or nothing at all.
The closer Lucy gets to the facts, the more she realizes that solving this murder depends on the lies. Because the truth rests somewhere between wild rumors, a trusted friends emotional new sewing project, and the authenticity of a mysterious three-hundred-year-old patchwork quilt. And Lucy must piece together the big picturebefore she becomes part of crafty killers deadly design . . .
