  🧵 Weaver and textile studio owner Wanda Warp is preparing for the prestigious Fiber Arts Gala when the event's major sponsor—a ruthless textile manufacturer—is found dead in her studio, crushed beneath her massive floor loom. The police suspect a tragic accident, but Wanda notices the warp threads have been deliberately cut and the victim's fabric samples contain hidden messages woven into the pattern. With her studio shut down and the weaving community in disarray, Wanda must thread her way through a complex investigation. Assisted by her weaving guild and the handsome textile engineer analyzing fiber stress points, Wanda uncovers a scheme involving industrial espionage, stolen weaving patterns, and sabotage of traditional looms. From suspicious tension inconsistencies that reveal tampering to fiber blends that don't match production records, every thread in the warp and weft tells a story. But when Wanda discovers the victim was systematically putting traditional weavers out of business to steal their patterns for mass production, she realizes the killer is protecting a craft heritage more valuable than any factory output. With the gala approaching and the real saboteur still operating, Wanda must weave together the truth before her own loom falls silent forever.

  Christmas in Mooselick River is all tinsel, twinkle lights…and murder. 
  After the year she’s had, Everly Dupree is ready for the holiday season—baking cookies, trimming the tree, guzzling eggnog, and indulging in one of her favorite traditions: the town’s annual Christmas lighting contest. 
  But murder never takes a holiday, and in Mooselick River, even Christmas comes with a body count. As displays are sabotaged, old grudges resurface, and bitter rivalries boil over, it’s starting to look like the lighting contest is about more than just dazzling decorations. 
  Then tenacious journalist Amber Hale turns up strangled with a string of Christmas lights, her corpse staged like a macabre holiday display—and her ghost becomes Everly’s newest problem. 
  The more she learns, the clearer it seems that Amber wasn't just chasing a headline. She was running from something—and if Everly isn’t careful, she’ll become the next holiday tragedy Mooselick River has to sweep under the snow.
