An Embroidery Mystery

review 1: Marcy takes an evening off from her embroidery shop to go with her significant other Ted to the exhibit of fabrics visiting their small local museum. But the next morning, the fabrics are missing, and Marcy finds a dead body in the alley behind her shop. The dead man is known as an art thief, but somehow Marcy senses that he wasn't a bad person, and is receptive when his son comes to town to clear his name. A subplot involves Ted's assertive mother, who visits the shop to get to know Marcy.
review 2: I got this book free from the author. This is my honest review.The latest in this embroidery mystery finds Marcy, from the Seven-Year Stitch needlework shop, checking out a new antique textiles and tapestries exhibit at the Tallulah Falls Museum. But before she... more can even linger over all that she has seen, she finds a dead body wrapped in one of exhibit pieces, behind her store. By now, her neighboring shop owner, Nellie, is convinced that Marcy is jinxing everyone in the neighborhood, and she's none too nice in expressing her feelings to everyone.Along with her adorable Irish Wolfhound, Angus, and her sexy boyfriend, Detective Ted Nash, Marcy sets out to discover who killed the visiting art professor and why someone would want him dead. In between teaching needlework classes and making her own projects, she checks the internet and politely grills all her customers for information.Amanda Lee fills her books with great humor around needlework and Hollywood, where her make believe mother costumes the stars for their shows. She also uses facts about the art world and needlework to enhance her mysteries. But best of all, the relationships between the varied characters brings me right into her neighborhood. And who doesn't love her pooch--Angus! As a needle worker and art lover myself, I've found a great new set of friends in these books. less
