  🧶 When the disagreeable president of the Pine Creek Knitting Circle is found strangled with a rare, luxurious yarn, the peaceful town is thrown into stitches. The owner of the local yarn shop, "The Cozy Skein," Maeve Henderson, becomes the prime suspect after a very public argument with the victim over a stolen family knitting pattern. To clear her name and save her struggling business, Maeve must untangle a web of lies with the help of her sharp-witted grandmother and a mischievous kitten named Purl. As she follows the threads of clues—from hidden family histories and forged heirlooms to secret rivalries and a lucrative knitting blog—Maeve discovers that the victim had more enemies than a dropped stitch. But with the real killer still on the loose and the police convinced they have their culprit, can Maeve knit together the clues before the killer decides to cut another life short?

  "A murder will occur tonight at Beecham House . . ." Who could resist such a compelling invitation? Of course, the murder in question purports to be a party game, and Phyllida looks forward to using some of the deductive skills she has acquired thanks to her employer, Mrs. Agatha, who is unable to attend in person. 
   
   
   
  The hosts, Mr. and Mrs. Wokesley, are new to the area, and Phyllida gladly offers their own overwhelmed housekeeper some guidance while events get underway. Family friends have been enlisted to play the suspects, and Mr. Wokesley excels in his role of dead body. Unfortunately, when the game's solution is about to be unveiled, the participants discover that life has imitated art. Mr. Wokesley really is dead! 
   
   
   
  In the absence of Inspector Cork, Phyllida takes temporary charge of the investigation, guiding the local constable through interviews with the Murder Game actors. At first, there seems no motive to want Mr. Wokesley dead . . . but then Phyllida begins to connect each of the suspects with the roles they played and the motives assigned to them. It soon becomes clear that everyone had a reason to murder their host—both in the game and in real life. Before long, Phyllida is embroiled in a fiendishly puzzling case, with a killer who refuses to play by the rules . . .
