The Rose Quilt

In the Roaring Twenties, a detective must sew up a case of quilting gone wrong—first in the cozy mystery series. 

 


It is the 1920s, in the world of quilting circles. Alice Chandler, a wealthy woman and prominent local quilter, is murdered with a pair of quilting shears during the preparations for a local flower show, leaving a dying clue on the lap quilt she and the executive committee are making as the first prize. Unfortunately, the clue could point to anyone on the committee or any of her three adopted children . . . 


 


Connecticut State Police lead investigator Steve Walsh is on the case, helped and hindered at every turn by the Alice's flapper daughter and by the scrappy reporter Julie Boroni. While trying to catch the killer, Steve's bachelor life may come to end—but with whom? A classic murder mystery with a quilty twist, this historical fiction novel is sure to grab every quilter's imagination and make them long for a bygone era.
