Synopsis

When murder strikes the small town of Tallulah Falls, embroidery shop owner Marcy Singer isn't afraid of getting down to the knitty-gritty to clear her name....
For most small-business owners in Tallulah Falls, the upcoming Renaissance Faire is a wonderful way to promote their specialty shops. For Marcy's nemesis, Nellie, and her sister, Clara, it's an opportunity to finally put Marcy and her shop, the Seven-Year Stitch, out of business. Apparently the sisters like to make grudges a family affair and have set up competing booths right next to Marcy's at the Ren Faire.
When Clara is discovered dead in her own booth--strangled by the scarf she had almost finished knitting--Marcy becomes the prime suspect. Now she has to do whatever it takes to keep her reputation from unraveling--and get to the bottom of a most deadly yarn....
