Rating: 5 of 5
“Yarned and Dangerous” is the first in a new series about Dorset Falls and the group of ladies who make up the Charity Knitters Association.
Josie Blair has moved back to help out her uncle after he was injured in a car crash that took the life of his wife he had recently married, Cora. One of the important tasks she has to accomplish before leaving is to close down and sell the stock of Aunt Cora’s yarn store, Miss Marple Knits.
Thing heat up when someone is found murdered in the yarn shop and attention is turned to the “accident” that her aunt and uncle where in. Josie finds herself working with the Charity Knitters Association to try to solve the crimes.
I really enjoyed reading this book. I especially liked the silly relationship between Josie and her Uncle Eb. It was fun and funny and sounded just like family.
I was happy that the author didn’t turn Josie into an expert knitter overnight but instead stayed true to what her character was good at and had her degree in – fashion design. As someone who both knits and crochets, I appreciate it when an author respects the time and experience it takes to acquire the skills.
I am certainly planning on picked up the next book in this series. I can’t wait to find out what happens to Josie and to see what happens to Uncle Eb once he is back on his feet.
I was provided a digital advance reader copy of this book by the publisher, Kensington, via Netgalley.
