Informationen zum Autor Monica Ferris is the USA Today bestselling author of several mystery series under various pseudonyms. Klappentext Shop owner and part-time sleuth Betsy Devonshire has a knack for unraveling mysteries-and it's entangled her in more than one knotty situation. Here, for the first time in one volume, are the first three Needlecraft Mysteries. CREWEL WORLD: When Betsy arrives in Excelsior, Minnesota, she winds up settling in-and taking a new job at her sister Margot's needlework shop. It seems things are finally going her way-until Margot is murdered. In a town this friendly, no one seems like they could have done something so horrible. But Betsy isn't going to rest until she finds her sister's killer. FRAMED IN LACE: The historic Hopkins ferry is raised from the bottom of a lake-and everyone is stunned when a skeleton is found on board. But the evidence is a bit soggy: the boat sank in 1949, the victim was a woman, and an unidentifiable lacelike fabric was found nearby. Still, with a little help from her needlecraft shop patrons, Betsy intends to sew up this mystery. A STITCH IN TIME: Minnesota winters may be freezing, but Betsy's heart is warmed when the best needle-workers in Excelsior volunteer to restore a damaged tapestry found in a church basement.
