It’s early October, and hordes of visitors have descended on the tiny, celebrated village of Threadville, Pennsylvania, to attend a Halloween crafts fair, a zombie retreat, and the wedding of Edna Battersby—dear friend to Willow Vanderling, owner of the chic machine embroidery boutique, In Stitches.
As a friendly prank for Edna’s wedding, Willow and the rest of the Threadville gang have fashioned an overly extravagant hoopskirt, complete with lights and music. But in a bizarre turn of events, the garish gown is implicated in a mysterious lakeside murder.
Now Willow must follow a trail of glow-in-the-dark thread, delve into ancient Egyptian curses, and creep through a haunted graveyard to unearth a killer—before she becomes the next fashion victim.
*~*~*~*~* Review *~*~*~*~*
This delightful addition to the Threadville mysteries is creative and so much fun. With a Halloween theme, the author is able to take more liberties with a spookier storyline, perfect for that time of year! The heroine of the story, Willow, is a wonderful sleuth and her supporting cast rounds out the story beautifully.
I loved the quirkiness of this book. From a Halloween themed craft fair, to a gathering of "zombies", Night of the Living Thread was simply unforgettable. The mystery kept you guessing until the very end. And the wedding we've all been waiting for was a perfect scenario for murder. So brilliant, Ms. Bolin!
As a fan of this series, I will always recommend it to other readers. So do yourselves a favor, and treat yourself to Night of the Living Thread. You'll be so happy that you did!
Rating: 5 stars
I received a paperback copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. All conclusions reached are my own.
